Is there a way to sort the Boot Logo's by newest?

Yep, simply visit the page. By default, the newest ones are on the first page displayed.

Keep in mind there is a backlog of about 10 animated logos that I can't approve, due to the java applet not rendering them properly for some reason. I need to get a java backend up somehow to allow the server to make animated GIF files, but unfortunatly Java for Linux is very RedHat centered, thus it will take a good chunk of time to get working on the Debian running server.

awesome. I didn't realize that. thanks.

You know, it just hit me that Debian is on that server. Can I do apt-get java? Or do I need to download the JRE from Sun? If it's the first one, I could have the animated logos approved pretty quickly.

I don't know what distribution you're running, but I'm on "testing" (sarge), and have

jdk1.1
sablevm
gij-3.0
gij-3.2

I also have

j2re1.3
j2sdk1.3
