Hi Patrick,
The feedback so far is that the image I sent is too
busy/has too
much info and the dancing penguin is not suitable. Does anyone have a
specific suggestion for a logo?
I think your logo has promise, it probably just needs some
simplification. If you like, send me your source file (Inkscape SVG?)
and I'll show you what I mean.
I was working on the idea that this logo would be more
like a crest than
an instantly recognisable and identifiable brand image which a
multinational company would pay a professional design team millions of
dollars to create...
Don't worry about it, those expensive branding teams don't always get it
right. A few years ago there was an organisation in the UK renamed
'Consignia' - it was, er, the Post Office...

BTW, from a brief search of the website it appears
that linuxaudio.org
doesn't currently have a logo. There is the image of the name but that
doesn't constitute a logo in my book.
Quite right, the existing 'domain name' image doesn't work if you can't
read English, while a true logo is universal. It does let you know what
to type into your browser though :-)
Cheers!
