It's there because the original was of the AIM logo and Tux.  I tried
sizing down the replacement logo.xpm after it was sent to me (I did
the port, but not the image), and gimp wouldn't take it down any
lower.  I also posted a message here and to advocacy about two weeks
before submitting the port asking if anyone was interested.  The only
reply I got was from someone on IRC so that's what I went with.

I didn't think we'd want a port that showed Tux as soon as the app is
ran on a FreeBSD system which is the reason for the new logo.

If you can downsize the image to make it smaller or provide a new one,
by all means go for it.
