Fusion Linux currently replaces generic-logos with it's own version of generic-logos package with rebranded graphics, quick and dirty way. You also need your own repo for this and that your package is higher version that one in fedora repos, or disable generic-logos package from fedora repo via exlude command in fedora.repos file. Anybody interested how Fusion Linux does it you can check out our kickstart files here: http://fusionlinux.org/downloads/ Hope that helps.
