I've heard that Plasmas are prone to screen burn if still images are on the screen for too

long a period.

Our TV is on approx 16hrs a day, and with Sky you have the channel logo in the corner

will this cause screen burn.

16 hours a day? Sheesh!

Most channels change the logo occasionally, then there are the ad breaks, and most TVs also move the picture slightly and imperceptibly from time to time to avoid this.

And we've discussed elsewhere strategies to avoid screen burn, to which plasma TVs (and mainly older designs) are more prone in the first few hundred hours of their life:

Keep contrast down

Keep brightness down

Avoid 'dynamic' picture modes.

In fact all those things will also give you a better picture, come to think of it.
