Jeff and I decided to put together a mostly-automated logo submission for mailing lists. On your list's info page [1] you should have a new Custom Logo option. Logos are put into a queue that we'll review (for appropriateness) and that we'll then fire off to update the list's logo. This example [2] shows how the logo is placed in the upper left corner and the list's name/info page link is moved to the upper right corner where the Mail Archive link usually sits.
Jaf, most likely we aren't going to provide a web interface for updating the list data on the info page. See the FAQ entry [3] to see how to update that data (it's up to the list admin to modify the headers going out on the list messages). Embedding those headers in the messages has the added benefit of instantly working on other archiving services like GMane.
