Don't be sorry --- is this the answer to my original question !? refer
to the subject ! I wanted to "completely ruin caching"  for the logo -
that's OK with me.
In this case I could evne reuse the same image-filenames !? right !?
Because I don't actually have ImageMagick installed on the
moin-serving machine - and I was generating the file across a network
disk access running a cron-job on a different machine ...

Thanks,
