Just a tip, make sure any black (or darker) logos have a shadow or border of some sort as they may not show up well on all backgrounds.
It's hard to tell when they're linked here how they will look on such backgrounds.
So I figured I'd share that with ya anyway.

Yeah I actually forgot to make those last few logos white. Thanks for reminding me. I did those right before I left the house this morning so I'll fix that up when I get back.

the regular image control doesn't load images from network locations, but the largeimage control does.
I updated the code on the first page to be "largeimage" instead of "image". If you can't get it by tonight I'll take a peek. I didn't add it to EKIM232's mod cause I figured he's working on his own skin...
Oh and obviously change x and y...

Thanks for the update mcborzu! It works great!!
And I was completely off in the XML ... I still have more to learn!
But now I can do something I'm a lot better at ... creating logos!

Great work! I think I'm going to update some black/dark logos to be white/light because I prefer changing to a lighter color than adding a white border/drop shadow. I'll see how it turns out.
