Maybe add both, old and new logo side by side? But I think
the post is
just perfect as it is now: short and to the point.

I get a security exception if I try to upload a new image to the media
library.  So right now I can only link to existing images hosted on
the website (or wiki).  The new logo was easy to find, since it is on
our home page.  I added that.

Is there a URL for the old logo, in a similar size (150px high) ?

Try this:

http://www.openoffice.org/images/ooo-logo.png
(300 x 150 px)

I added that to the draft:

https://blogs.apache.org/preview/OOo/?previewEntry=openoffice_org_is_now_apache

The scale is off to my eyes though.  Maybe we need to match the same
point size, say the size of the O's, rather than the absolute height
of the image?

I've no clue howto re-scale the image. But maybe it's OK to limit the
display of the image in the blog post. When switching to HTML mode (via the
"Toggle HTML source" icon) you can enter the following:

...
<p align="center"><img height="100" width="200"
src="http://www.openoffice.org/images/ooo-logo.png"; />  </p>
...
<p align="center"><img height="100" width="200"
src="http://www.openoffice.org/images/AOO_logos/OOo_Website_v2_copy.png"; />
</p>
...

Then both logos will be scaled to 100x200px of size. In the preview of blog
roller it looks fine.

Good.  I did that.  One image had a hard coded white background and
the other was a PNG with alpha transparency.  That looked bad.  So I
set the background on the entire table to white.  That now looks good.

Yes, much better.

What about changing the logos? The new one on top?

Or side by side with a comment like:

"From the past <old logo> to the future <new logo>.

OK, good night for today.

Marcus

I would add one line to wrap things up:

The .org is now in Apache.

I like that.

Cheers,

Pedro.
