personally (for how ever little it should count), with Erik's version,
I like the fact that the "M" lines up well with the gears, and not
using webgl, since that seems pretty heavy handed for a logo.
But it would be really nice to see some sort of easter egg that takes
you to page w/ webgl thing w/ same logo that you could rotate, w/ the
"Mesa" text rotating with the gears.. I like the idea of gears
spinning on axles extending from "M" and the whole connection between
the gears and mesa ("mesa is what makes the gears spin").
I do like the font in your version a bit better, so if that could be
made to line up w/ gears by tweaking size of the individual gears or
stretching the M in different directions, that might be better.
