There is a BuildInstructions page (and now also a more ubuntu and
smartcard specific one contributed lately, to be merged later I hope)
on the spice-space wiki. (http://spice-space.org/page/Building_Instructions
and http://spice-space.org/page/Building_Instructions_ubuntu_smartcard)

Adding the logo sounds like changing the client icon maybe or reverting the
watermark removing patch by Hans and introducing your own patch with your own
icon converted to a header?

I'm not sure how good the instructions are wrt windows driver building, so
if they don't help you (or any other problem), just let me know.
