As aapezzuto as correctly taken us to task (thanks for the re-focusing, by the way ) the idea is to make the image identify as MobileRead to the point that folks know what it is without the text. For instance, most everyone knows what this logo is for, without any text at all.


The more I think about it, the more I like the basic approach in post 104 (Steve's Idea), I like the one with the lines on it to simulate text (last one), best of the lot, I think.

The idea of combining the rings with the binary and text (i.e. imprinting the text and binary code on the rings, possibly one binary ring and the other text) is an interesting one, but keeping in mind the scalability concerns aapezzuto raised, I'm not sure it's worth messing with. I guess that would be a matter of how clever an artist we had attempt it -- any volunteers?
