R.xpm?

I use AfterStep on Linux. I made an R.xpm file (attached)
and put this icon in the "wharf". To invoke R I click on the R icon.

I did not find an offical R.xpm, and so I am submitting this one
for your collective consideration....

The idea behind the icon is that it looks like a scatterplot, which is
"statistical". My main beefs with my R.xpm are that it doesn't have a
transparent background (don't know how to do it) and it is not really
centred. If anyone knows how to fix it up please send me a fixed version.

I've placed a couple of alternate possibilities on

www.biostat.ku.dk/~pd/R-square.jpg
www.biostat.ku.dk/~pd/R-square.xpm
www.biostat.ku.dk/~pd/R-dump.xpm

The former two are just the web logo, cropped to fit in a square box.
I use the .jpg version in my Gnome panel.

The last one is an old screen dump that has been scaled down (with
some pre-blurring and post-sharpening). Probably not too useful, but I
got curious as to how small you could make such an image and still be
able to recognize the graph.

Hi,

I did not find an offical R.xpm, and so I am submitting this one
for your collective consideration....

An updated (transparent and centered) version is to be found at:  

  http://swipc30.swi.psy.uva.nl/~rijn/R 

I've also included a transparent and scaled version of the R-logo as found
on the www.r-project.org pages. Both icons are 50x50, just let me know if
you want a differently scaled version.

Groet,
  Hedderik.

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.

BTW I like mine better because the scatterplot conveys "stats" visually,
and the CRAN logo doesn't visually convey what the corresponding program
does.
