Description

The App Logo is one of the _first_ things people interact with when using the Library App.

Visiting https://dwyl-library.herokuapp.com we see this nice home screen with two titles:

Clicking/taping on "**login**" button leads to a GitHub Auth page:

dwyl-library by [dwyl](https://github.com/dwyl) ... the `defualt` space invader logo ("[alien monster](https://emojipedia.org/alien-monster/)") 👾doesn't inspire confidence ...

# Story

As a first-time user,
I want to see a nice logo when logging in, to be reassured that the app is legit
so that I have confidence in authorising it to access my personal details.

# Todo

+ [x] Replace the _temporary_ (_space invader_) logo with a more user-friendly one (_see below_)
+ [ ] Discuss Logo requirements.
e.g: should the @dwyl Library include the @dwyl logo?
Are we trying to build a **_general_ purpose standalone** app that _anyone_ can use to manage their books ***or*** are we building an app for _us_ to use [@home](https://github.com/dwyl/home) ?
+ [ ] Source or commission a _real_ logo.

After a bit of searching (_the GitHub UI is not great for re-discovering infrequent use features ..._)

Found random image of books: https://www.google.com/search?tbm=isch&q=book+logo+free

Removed noise:

Replaced default logo with one that looks more "real":

Now GitHub Auth looks like this:

Still think we should create/commission a _real_ logo, but this one is "OK" in the mean time.
