With the new logo having debuted, is it possible to switch the main page image to that logo as a placeholder until an official image of Tennant is released?

I'm not a fan of the current image, because I feel like we need something that encapsulates the show as a whole instead of just the 13th Doctor's run.

Please provide an actual image, though.

I'd like to apologize for all this.

Would a transparent version of the logo work? This rendering comes from Wikimedia Commons, which designates it as public domain:

Also, I feel logo is best in this case given the doctor changes his/her appearance every few years. Wouldn't want to do this every few years or what have you. Better to have something that will last.

In the previous thread it was also suggested to use the TARDIS. But I'm down with the logo. Since the last thread I'd rather have a "timeless" image (iykwim) than one that's new and hip.

I'm good with the logo, but the washed-out colors of the transparent version bug me in comparison to the screencap.

It's actually based on the logo used from late 1973 to early 1980 (as seen here). I went with it largely because with the Revival Series adopting a touched-up version of it, I felt it could do a good job representing both eras of the show at once, and when the Revival Series inevitably trades it out for a new logo in the future, it could still be timeless in its representation of when the Classic Series was at the height of its popularity in the UK.

Here is a cropped, higher quality version of the new logo if we want to use it.

It looks like machop unilaterally replaced the page image with 2 last night; they haven't posted in this thread, so I don't know if they knew it existed or not. The notice from this page's previous Image Pickin' thread is also still up, so make of that what you will.
