I have just got done doing a overhall of my site. I used the below
Gimp::FU perl script to creat all my new logos for the site.
This will also allow me to change the colors without much trouble.
I am sure it can be improved.. but it work for me. I also have a similar
script to do the small text links.
#!/usr/bin/perl
use Gimp;
use Gimp::Fu;
register "large_logo",
"Create a large logo\nfor use on a website",
"My first gimp script... No help here!!!",
