I don't know for sure, but it might help them forumlate an answer if they knew how your web page would be used.

Sorry, but a 286 cannot fold unless you also have a 287 installed. :D

Sorry . . . I was still searching for the answer. I knew the topic had come up before but I didn't remember where.

I am able to minimize my needs, so I would use only red protein logo from download page, this logo is used everywhere publicly on internet
so may I too?

The Stanford and Folding@home logos are copyright of Stanford University, so they can't be used w/o permission (and it's a complex legal situation to get permission -- I am not authorized to grant permission). If you make your own logo, I don't see any conflict, although you should make it clear that you are not affiliated with Stanford University.

I wouldn't say "pity". It's unsurprising. In fact, what we need is a work-around. Is it possible to provide crunchers with an image they could use for "<img>" element? (look, placing buttons around is usual behaviour these days.)
