1) That shows nothing, unless you also define a height of the H1 that
is the height of the logo
2) Why bother with padding-left when you hide the text anyways?
3) display:none also hides the text from screen readers - and maybe
even some search engine robots who counteract spammers using
display:none for keyword spamming.
