Fair enough. It seems there's no source for it around (just the PNG), so I've been vectorizing. In the process, I thought I may as well throw my suggestion into the mix: https://github.com/eegg/d-brand/raw/master/d-logo.png Basically, I like the core idea of the logo at d-p-l.org. One thing that doesn't work so well is the shiny iconized background. A logo should be *simple*, and I think this just detracts from the nice central idea. To this end I have removed it: I think the logo itself should just be the Mars-and-satellites detail. The other thing that doesn't work is, and forgive my crudeness, it looks like a lactating breast. Once I realized this I have unfortunately been unable to shake the image from my mind. To this end I have introduced a white highlight to the satellites. (I'm still not sure this fully removes the image.) One side-effect of this you might like is that the crescent simultaneously acts as "devil's horns", reminiscent of this charming little guy<http://digitalmars.com/d/horns.gif>who seems to have been forgotten. Obviously, this is a prototype. The alignment and composition could be worked on.
