@V!NCENT I can see you are going to flood this thread with ideas Let's see if we can make the new logo right here at phoronix. So far my favourite is the black X with the white dot in the middle. Maybe with all the letters with the same height it will look better. I'll give it a shot when I have the time.

The blue and white one looks too much like the DivX logo -_- and theX with the white dot reminds me too much of PhysX with ageia dot on the middle (*sigh*).
It sucks to find out that after moddifying your logo's you end up with something someone else has already thought of
The red and orange rings makes people recognise the X.org becaus they know the old logo. It's realy hard to come up with a simple logo that's not tried before with PhysX, DivX and DirectX. I like the handwritten-style X on the last one. Maybe mix it all.
The logo is not old but can't be copyrighted, right? Maybe mix it with some blue?

I too like the old logo. It comes superb in the kde4 taskbar icons.

Vincent, seriously, install Inkscape and give it a shot. Unlike The Gimp, it has a nice, intuitive, discoverable GUI. It isn't a 'pro' getto; for what you are doing you don't need to know anything and the result will automatically jump from "OMG WTF is this" to something that will look nice and clean.

This. I'd love be able to get in touch with them, or at least some sort of "representative".
