It is also not difficult to replace the logo, you only need to upload a new one.
I have been doing some user testing on logo changing, this week, and in fact it's quite difficult for new users. It is a serious user experience issue because many people report that they want to immediately change the look of their site so they feel they own it.
I agree. Task completion on changing logos is poor. I've had quite a few complaints about the logo being hard to change. For starters, it requires that the user has the files-directory properly setup and that he can figure out the location and UI for uploading a new logo. Then, often times, the logo is too small or too big. The entire process can easily take up 20 minutes and is not free of frustrations. Not exactly fun if this is part of your first 30 minutes of Drupal.
1) Task completion on changing logo's is poor. 2) Error rates in discovering how to change a logo is high. Even if you knew exactly where to go it's a minimum of 4 clicks for a initial task, with plenty of room to make mistakes. 3) Time is not unreasonable, but it could be much faster in the cases where they succeed. 4) Users failure to complete the change in the look of their site leaves them with a subjective negative experience.
