So, I think people didn't understand that at all -- In your original phrase:

"Is it just me who takes issue with a 400x400 px ubuntu logo on the top
Planet Fedora?"

I definitely read the emphasis on "ubuntu" rather than "400x400 px".  Sorry
for that.

The image is actually scaled to 272x275px (the html tags specify a width and
height) so its in the range of the "I voted" Fedora stickers which are 25
x 250px

I don't have a problem with us showing images of this size.  Pictures
displayed on the planet are often even bigger.  If we want to have some
guidance about how large a photo or logo could be and not break our CSS,
I guess we could but unless the image is designed to make user's machines
unusable due to large memory needs to display it, it seems like something
more in the matter of good or bad aesthetic sense rather than something we
should be saying you must or must not do.
