[St.] nods...
I'm using the Rockbox clef logo in my 24px iconset for RaaA, and it looks quite nice.
The original version I used for the 24px iconset (I think it's still on the tracker...) used the square "Rb" logo that I really like:
It scales really well too.
I *prefer* the "Rb" logo personally as I think it fits in better with the boot splash, forum/theme site/wiki logo(s) etc.
But I believe the "Rockbox Clef" is the more /traditional/ choice.

it's actualy not a bad idea- very simple and easy to recognize.

what on earth? I'm going to go ahead and agree with bluebrother and [St.] on this one... we have a logo and it would need to be something amazing for us to think it is time to replace it!
AlexP:
To be honest, I think:
looks pretty terrible whatever you do to it. I'm not a fan of the MS Paint look :)

I believe that logo was only being discussed in the context of targets like the Clip, low resolution and Mono. It's just scaled up for better visibility. Everythings going to have the "MS Paint" look under those circumstances.

Unfortunately it doesn't scale down very well -- if used as window icon (with the usual size of 16x16px) it's not really recognizable anymore. Which is (at least according to my understanding) the initial reason for the clef logo variant. The "Rb" variant is used as larger icon for Rockbox Utility on systems that allow specifying different icons for different sizes (Windows, OS X) but I wouldn't mind switching to the clef logo for all sizes instead. Same goes for other places were a rectangular icon does make sense. The clef logo just looks "cleaner" in the icon case.
We could even add the clef as icon to the executables for other Rockbox tools (like ipodpatcher, sansapatcher etc) on Windows so it shows it after downloading the binaries. Not that it's useful ... :)
