I think the new logo looks very good and fits PostgreSQL nicely.

But, I wouldn't put it at the top of every menu. At the top of the
home page, yes. And at the bottom of a few key content pages.

I hope the purpose of the web site is not to get more people to think
about elephants and diamonds when they see "PostgreSQL" and vice
versa. The Internet is already awash in logos.

Why not include full sample HTML in the readme, e.g.
[stolen from Jan's example]

<a href="http://www.postgresql.org/">
<img src="pg_backed.gif" width=180 height=40 border=0 alt="Carried by PostgreSQL">
</a>
