 * Hi
 * I’m running this code to list out pages (need to for a particular implementation):
 * `query_posts('post_type=page')`
 * However I’d like to exclude the pages named “logo” and “about” from the query
   loop.
 * How do I add that into the query?
 * … also, how would I get the query to display two particular pages, e.g:
 * `query_posts('post_type=page&pagename=logo,about')`
 * cheers

 * Figure out the page ids for those two pages and use:
 *     ```
       //replace the 3,8 with your page ids
       $args=array(
         'post__not_in' => array(3,8),
         'post_type' => 'page',
         'post_status' => 'publish',
       );
       query_posts($args);
       ```
