I'm not the webmaster, Pavel is.

It was Pavel's choice to use the brick-red. A lot of people like it, I
think. It's the same image, he has just coloured it differently.

It is a *little* different, in that it doesn't have the right wing (on the
left side) detached. That's because I used the new version of the graphic,
that IBPhoenix had done for us. Though some error, the artist forgot to
detach the wing. But that vectored graphic scales down a lot better than
the Markus Soell version does. No other reason.

Otherwise, it's the same as the (official) Markus Soell one.

Some time it should be set straight. Perhaps the Foundation could fund an
artist to fix up the graphic for us.
