Thanks Hedderik for fixing up my logo and for putting several up to easily grab! I thought the other logo people are telling me about was the *CRAN* logo rather than the R logo, because it consists of a stylized C (ellipse fading out on the right) with superimposed R.
It is used on the R HTML help pages, for example. A pure `R' version is in the R sources as a Windows icon.
BTW I like mine better because the scatterplot conveys "stats" visually, and the CRAN logo doesn't visually convey what the corresponding program does.
One issue is size: 50 x 50 icons can convey more information than 16x16 ones, but one can have fewer such icons. If I want icons at all, I want lots of small ones.
