Thanks again to Randy, the new logo (solid black, orange/gray, and  
solid orange) can now be found at http://openid.net/logo-graphics/.

Who wants to slice up those PDFs to replace the images on http://openid.net/logos/? 
   I'd think we'd want each logo as a PNG at a few different useful  
sizes.

Thanks,
--David
