As a footnote to this conversation, I'd like to
point out the
aesthetic issues involved in using any standard image; particularly
one who's purpose is replacement. Certainly it cannot be pretty, as
such would be pleasing and therefore incongruent to the purpose of
replacement. The current image takes this into account and is indeed
quite ugly, I don't think its particularly ugly enough to make people
want to replace it immediately.
Perhaps we can have a contest to produce, within suitable boundaries,
the ugliest possible image with the utmost of replaceable qualities.

No. We accept that the place holder will be there for some time thus
it must be something regulars are able to tune out and must not
particularly lower our audence experence.
