Ahhh ... don't you just love getting consensus on logos (not
possible)? Sorry Bruno & MDP, I know you guys have been busting hump
on the new design. But FWIW, I think the new logo is a bit boring.
There, I've said it. I probably deserve to get kicked for that.
Anyway, I prefer the 2 logos by Solie (the 2nd one (the one on the
bottom) is my preference). But there seems to be enormous
inconsistency in the logo design process -- depending on the day, it
either has to be a stylized-text logo or a logo with a break-away
favicon. So which one is it?
