  I found the green a bit more fresh for the spring look and the colorful
banner. Did you have a look at both? My suggestion and your proposal of a
white background? I looked at all before making my choice of proposal (the
third is the current version) and found the green background most pleasing
in combination with the spring logo, followed by the white background as
version you suggested.

  Also note that it is not possible with the spring logo layout to not
modify the img width/height attributes. So that will have to be changed
back and forth anyway. I don't know if just omitting those attributes
would also be a solution.

  IIUC you are our homepage banner/logo maintainer now, so please feel free
to decide yourself :P
