ok, so my execution is pretty crude, but you can at least see my idea. I trust you to imagine it professionally executed in cheerful colors. Advantages of proposed logo over existing logo ---------------------------------------------- represents an actual python involved in python-like behavior, rather than two tadpoles has a sense of dynamism and forward motion, as opposed to backwardness and upside-downiness the eyes form a colon, thus remeniscent of python code, and the coil is indicative of the "more than meets the eye" that a python object so remarkably delivers also, pythons coil around their eggs! succeeds in making snake into a letter "P" without making it face backwards, and yet resists the unfortunate temptation to use a forked tongue to make a "y" numerous variations and animations immediately present themsleves no obvious references to religious icons will sell T shirts and lapel pins; a swag clock is an obvious possibility (did I mention ( http://tinyurl.com/rkq3s ) that I don't like the current logo?) Much as it would be an ego-boost for me to have some version of this idea used for the language, I'm almost as happy with repurposing the most excellent PyCon logo if that is OK with everyone involved. But imo we can't fully promote the power of Python with tadpoles. mt -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
