I think we should stick to the usual five-star rating system, so here's my ideal icon:

Also, I think this might be ideal:

Oh, and maybe this:

How about this?

And this?

I remember designing the bean images with jacob :) It was good.

We didn't create the images, just modified to our needs...though the whipped cream I did myself :D

To avoid confusion I would say they should probably be the ubuntu logo. I don't think it's possible to alternate, though if it is I'd say like this:

[bodyharvester]

dont you think if people new to the forum see only Ubuntu logos on some threads they may get confused as to which distro it discusses?

i voted for coffee with whipped cream because i love cream :p
