That looks distorted, elongated in the vertical plane, to me. Also, on
the logo I was suggesting I'd added a single line of grey pixels to
give a retro shadow look, which isn't there in the Inkscape one. Also
I didn't use black, since the logo on the website is grey, I used, I
think, 51, 51, 51.

But, Al, I tried to install Inkscape (for about ten minutes) and
couldn't quite be bothered considering it's probably in this new
machine I haven't yet installed, so if you can get the distortion
sorted and provide it as a fairly big png, I can add that shadow back
in really easily and get the grey sorted.

Also, I'm aware that things are waiting for me, I'll attempt to sort
that shortly.
