 Note from Jason Simanek:
 I do like the idea of having the imagery being displayed on the display. If
 we could develop a compelling image that represents music and video it
 could be displayed on the LCD screen in the larger logos and then perhaps
 we could simply use the music and video image by itself for the extremely
 small logos. That would be quite elegant.
