Make icon/logo user configurable

Discussed in #201

Hi,

I'm setting this skin up for an observatory and we would like to change the logo on the pages to the logo of our observatory. But I can't seem to get it to work.
I made 4 versions of the logo corresponding to the sizes op the icon-192x192.png, etc. I've put them in the same dir as the icon files and changed the line in html-head. inc to .
After removing all files from the www-root and adding the png's to the copy_once line in skin.conf I regenerated all pages. But still the original logo is in the top right corner.

What am I doing wrong?

Thanks.

You are referring to the logo on the top left in the header (the blue one), right?

There is currently no built-in way to change the logo, it is simply included in the template as an SVG: https://github.com/Daveiano/weewx-wdc/blob/3.x/skins/weewx-wdc/includes/ui-shell.inc#L23

You could add your logo as an SVG and include that, this should work, I guess. You could also replace the provided icon with your own (https://github.com/Daveiano/weewx-wdc/blob/3.x/skins/weewx-wdc/includes/icons/wdc.svg).

I did not think that a user would probably want to change the icon, to be honest. I will include an easy method of replacing the icon in the next release - because this sounds like a useful addition to the skin.

Thanks for reaching out!
