You are probably making a fundamental error here, CSS is for styling not
for adding content, that is what your markup (The HTML part) is for. A
logo I would say is content and should be defined in your HTML. Whether
or not you indent your paragraphs, or your text is black or brown, or if
the background is an image of a pretty blue sky or just plain white is a
style issue and under the auspices of your stylesheet.

If you want a common banner with your logo that should be done with
HTML. If you want to include it on every page, well that is a matter of
SSI or CGI methods of including a file.
