Rockbox Logo...
pixelma:
This logo discussion comes up every now and then... and first something general: I've never heard of any real plans to change the current logo. This is probably a matter of taste and therefore hard to discuss, but I think that a new logo has to be better by quite an amount (in the opinion by a few core developers and/or project leaders) to even consider a change. Especially since switching to a different logo would mean some more work to get it on the website, forum and so on...
This leads to my second point: my personal opinion is that if something's changed there and is supposed to be used as boot logo on the targets it should be used on all displays (at least all bitmap ones). You can discuss about it but I just like if it stays as close as possible across the different displays so that the logo stays recognisable.
Third, I completely agree with Llorean about the reflection "fashion". For me this covers the reflection of the whole logo as well as the glossy effect in the writing itself. I like the sketchy look of the current logo and that it is a bit rough around the edges. It gives some sort of identity and doesn't follow "everyone" else...
Summary: I don't think that this polishing of the current logo is worth it (even making it too banal). Feel free to discuss about these thoughts...
yapper:
I happen to like the cleaner look, but I agree with pixelma's general comments.
Personally, I'd like a more "iconic" logo, like the famed "cube R" that can't be used :) If someone came up with a useable logo like that, it would be interesting ....
DancemasterGlenn:
Maybe something like the one I posted...

I like the idea of alternatives, but on the other hand I am a big fan of the current logo. When I made a boot splash there was no way I could leave out the original logo in my design (it's here if you'd like to see it), somehow it really feels like Rockbox to me. ::)

I really like that logo... we could just swap pics of the players for each player :D
