I also wonder if we couldn't combine both the R and the lambda in interesting ways.
The left part and the stem of a capital R sort of looks like a lambda, if you squint right. Could we exploit this property somehow? http://img543.imageshack.us/img543/6555/scriptr.jpg Going from the other direction, adding a curve on a lambda letter yields something that looks like a convincing letter R, like this perhaps: http://img337.imageshack.us/img337/9954/anotherlambdarpng.jpg Or something with the parenthesis "echo" motif on the main site: http://img513.imageshack.us/img513/5233/lambdarechopng.jpg We might be able to make trivial changes to the existing logo to bring this property out: http://img256.imageshack.us/img256/8018/lambdarpng.jpg All just wild speculation of course. 9 hours ago, Asumu Takikawa wrote: > On 2012-02-11 13:23:46 -0500, Matthias Felleisen wrote: > > Have you guys considered a small change that makes the 'r' more > > lambda-ish? > > Maybe an 'r' in different scripts can be considered?
