Use the errorDocument directive (documented at [httpd.apache.org ]) to point a '404' error to a script (perl, PHP, whatever). If the requested file has an image extension (or has an image/* mimetype; PHP supplies the mime_content_type [us2.php.net] function for this; I'm sure there are many ways to do this in perl; the MIME::Types [search.cpan.org] module is one way), then set the "Content-Type" header to the mimetype of your logo image and return the content of the logoimage to the browser.
