- changed AutoQA logo to Marvin the Paranoid Android

As much as I feel like a stick in the mud for asking this - was that taken from an image of the movie? Do we have the rights to be using it?
So after talking to Spot, no, we can't use Marvin logo :(
Even though the artwork is GPL licensed, the character is still copyrighted. We can't use anything that resembles Marvin character too closely.
If you have some ideas for a different logo, throw it in. If nothing else comes up, I'll revert it to the good old defense turret.

I replaced Marvin with Sherlock Holmes (for nitpickers - copyright on Sherlock Holmes should have expired in 2000 according to Wikipedia). If you find something better, you still have a chance.
