Our site has 4 skins that display the logo - 3 standard and 1 site-
specific. The site-specific skin uses rounded edges for the individual 
page area frames, while the standard skins use square edges. This means a 
logo with square edges looks fine for the standard skins, but not for the 
site-specific skin. A logo with rounded edges has the opposite 
characteristic.

The programmer who designed the site-specific skin solved this problem 
with a hack. The absolute url to a different logo with rounded edges is 
hardwired into the skin code. Therefore, if we want to reorganize where 
we keep the site logos (which we have done once already), we have to 
modify the site-specific skin code.

While it is possible that no one else has this problem, I would imagine 
there are skins out there that would look better if they were able to use 
a skin specific logo (e.g., using a different color scheme or a different 
font).

My question is: has this issue been addressed before? If so, and there is 
a good solution, I would appreciate hearing of it.

Regards,
