+====== New Logo! ======
+Our old logo presented a few challenges:
+  * It was wider than it was high (21:16), which made it a bit awkward for some web applications since it didn't fit well in a square.
+  * It had some very fine details (the tower, the ice cap, the water in the valleys) that din't scale down well.
+In trying to solve these, I came up with a round alternative:
+^  Old Logo        ^  Draft 1  ^  Draft 2  ^  Final Version  ^

+List of changes:
+  * Change the overall shape from a triangle to a circle.
+  * Change the colour of the water to a darker blue.
+  * Fix the sun, move it behind the water, and remove the rays.
+  * Remove the snow cap.
+  * Replace the tower and antenna with a simpler antenna symbol.
+  * Redraw the mountains using simple triangular shapes.
+  * Change the colour of the sky to a lighter blue.
+Thank you all for your feedback, specially to Stephanie, VA7SLR, who designed the original logo and provided excellent feedback for the new one.
