Comment:
Atom (RFC 4287) defines a &quot;logo&quot; in addition to the &quot;icon&quot;: &quot;The image SHOULD have an aspect ratio of 2 (horizontal) to 1 (vertical)&quot;. Consider doing the same here.

    <thetext>There are use cases for both logos (which vary in aspect ratio) and icons/avatars (which should be square) and as such it may be worth including both. Compatibility with Atom may also be useful.</thetext>

    <thetext>See also comment from #7544: 

&quot;It&apos;s easier to convert a square to an almost square rectangle (eg 57x60) than
to convert a rectangular logo to a square. Giving users the ability to
advertise both should ultimately result in a higher quality and better fit for
purpose.&quot;</thetext>
