+ In the old logo, I used a Garamond font. Not sure which one. This time I took OFL-licensed EB Garamond. Hey it's pretty good!

+ I really love the quirk of the italic EB Garamond, but the regular one seems to work better. Went with it.

+ The logo would go to the favicon for sure. Rendered it at 32 by 32 pixel. This is just bad.

+ With no anti-aliasing it's bad too.

+Spent some time optimizing the image so it looks better at low-res. Unlike raster images, where more points means a smoother images, in vector images it's better to have //less// points. Peculiar.
