Thanks for caring!

We talked about this some days ago. I was proposing translators
providing customised png images (translating the corresponding SVG):

Victory proposed a better solution I think:

Unfortunately I couldn't find time yet to try and test it (different
browsers, screen sizes, languages). I guess we should use the same font
as in the current banner (Quicksand), this can be installed in
www-master, but I don't know how to "serve it" to the clients that don't
have it installed.

Hopefully some other team member can give a hand on this. In the
meantime, if any team provides a custom png, I think we can include it
easily via the make.lang file of the language.
