Yes! I think that "cr.png" has nailed the design.
"lambdarechopng.jpg" especially got my attention before, but I thought
it needed major aesthetic changes to fit Racket better.
I think "cr.png" is a big step in the aesthetic fit direction.
"cr.png" also has nice continuity of evolution from the current Racket
logo and preceding PLT Scheme logos.
"cr.png" is a bit geeky and slightly awkward -- moreso than the current
Racket logo -- but it's supposed to represent a computer programming
platform that grew out of Scheme, so a bit geeky is appropriate. And it
has more character (no pun) than the current Racket logo.
I could see "cr.png" as a rough draft of a good final version of the
logo, with the design being pretty much complete, and needing only some
experimenting&tweaking of subtleties of the rendering (in the graphic
artistry sense).
(I don't mean to discourage further ideas with this opinion; maybe
someone has an even better refinement, or some different ideas.)
