How did you make your logo in the component layer?  Is it made with
polygons or with lines?  Could you post a .pcb file with the logo?

If it is made with lines, you could convert it to an element (thus
converting the =E2=80=9Cline=E2=80=9D entities into =E2=80=9Cpad=E2=80=9D e=
ntities) and then the
pads will automatically clear the solder mask.

If it is made with polygons, you are out of luck.  I think.  It's
really too bad that pcb footprints are so restricted.

Regards,
Colin
