The logo may need more workshopping. Sadly the first thing I think of when I see the butterfly is the MSN logo. We'd end up having a more conversations about how we haven't got anything to do with windows than we'd want. <br>

><br></div></blockquote><div><br>That said, I do agree that something like a butterfly is more immediately recognizable than the GNU is -- present company excepted. Perhaps we should take a look at birds. <br><br>The bee is a good suggestion, especially since bees are social and work in concert to accomplish important tasks, like protecting the hive. Perhaps a detailed logo would look a lot like a bee and the abstracted version could be a yellow and black box with wings? <br>
<br><br>Just brainstorming. Thank you Robert for taking thetime to lay out all the peices involved in a visual identity! <br>Cheers, <br>Deb <br>(not Debora btw)<br></div></div>
