> The cons: > - I think that something that is text (i.e. the company name) > gets marked up > as an image I would argue (without sounding too much like a marketeer or graphic designer) that a logo (particularly if it's not just just text in a specific typeface, but also includes swooshes, ticks, whatver) is more than just a visual representation of text, in the same way that a head and shoulders passport photo of a person is not just a visual representation of the person's name - and nobody would hopefully argue that my photo should be marked up as my name and then image replaced with the photo. It's part of the company's identity, and as such is content - to a certain extent anyway. Patrick __________________________________________________________ Patrick H.
