That's a good idea and I might have been there already.  Anyone can
try that, but due to legal reasons, I'm staying out of there (at
least, I'm not going to report publically any results).

Well, I could try posting in the xspf spec just to show how it looks.

It is transparent.  Actually, it's a vector.  I'm providing PNG's with
white background to help people see it.  If you'll look into older
tests under this thread, you'll see that I have put the logo on top of
images as well as backgrounds of many colors.

Anyhow, thanks a lot for the feedback.  I thought no one had noticed the post...
