I've always been taught to keep the drill-downs down to 2-3 
levels at most.  This represents the number of clicks to get 
from a general site like SCN to a specific page for a group 
or organization.  Naturally, a simple, clean design is good, 
too, and in our case _must_ accommodate text-only browsers.  
This means all the images need text tags (alt in the older 
html), page structure to support consistent tabbing through 
links on a page, no frames, etc.

I think the logo is good as it.  If anything, perhaps produce 
a version that is the same image but more "realistic", like 
maybe a sculpted-look version, or something like digital art.  
Though now that I look at it I see it looks pretty good on 
its own.  Perhaps it could be used to drive site identity.  I
dunno.  It's not as important as the website structure issues, 
such as they are.  Others are closer to that than I am.
