not what GCC would need to improve user's perception of its

The key point is that we don't need another funny logo that
*we* like.  Do we want more users?  Then we need something
as boring as Microsoft's logo for Developer Studio, perhaps
designed by psychologists or marketing experts.

Motivated by your opinion I sat down and created another logo quickly. This is a more stylized drawing of a gnu - not psychologist proven but a little more demure. If you're interested it was *inspired* by an image visible here: http://blog.virgilio.it/thisisnotablog


Hereby I state that I am the creator of this image and put this image under public domain in the same move (e.g. everybody can use it as she or he wants to). Is that enough?
