> They can be printed easely on two colors This is actually really important - one colour, even. If you compare the old and new Apple logos, or the those of the BBC, you'll see that both organisations have moved from multicoloured to monochrome logos. It saves a ton of money when it comes to printing. In fact, the old Apple logo was held up as an example of 'how to get it wrong' by print buyers. As much as I like the fish, it doesn't actually tell you anything you need to know about Ogg, and the thor/hammer/snake logo is way too cryptic. Check out a typical DVD player (seemingly the convergence device for digital formats now) and you'll see a dozen logos indicating support for various formats, printed in black and no more than a few millimetres high. If you want to see Ogg on there, it will have to be a similar, simple logo. As for Miguel's designs, I think they show promise. One thing I have to say though, is that some people will read 099 instead of ogg - it should be a more obvious 'g'. Maybe if a free software font could be used throughout, that would avoid sublicensing problems too.
