Hmm, a little too fancy, and will slow down page loads (unless you code the
logo images such that they can be cached). I'd also prefer to see as much
space as possible made for the set image (one reason I won't be using the
new looker-upper is the smaller image).

Yes!

Yea, that would be cool, though if it existed, almost certainly half the
pages out there would seriously abuse it somehow....

As in this text:
"6828 Twin-Winged Spoiler (Futuron)"
Nope (at least not at home on IE 4). I'll try again at work on NN 3.01 for
AIX (but I think it will work fine). If there is any option to chose
formatted posts, I always disable it (don't remember if NN or IE have that,
but if so, I certainly am not using it).
