I didn't realize that.  If your logo image file is right there on the
same filesystem, I still think it makes much more sense to avoid doing
a local web request for each page that has a logo.  Using the
filesystem path would certainly be faster.

PmWiki's minimum requirement is PHP 4.1 and getimagesize() is a PHP
function, so it doesn't seem like PmWiki would be what's making it
happen or not happen.

A thought: Security settings on the server may be denying PHP scripts
from requesting URLs.
