Here's my latest suggestion: http://www.athenalab.com/Rakudo_logo_2.htm
It combines Damian Conway's suggestions (please see below) and Ross Kendall's suggestions at (http://www.rakudo.org/some-rakudo-logo-ideas). For a smaller sized Rakudo logo, just remove the text between the proposed Perl 6 logo and the Parrot logo. The proposed Perl 6 logo is a coronene molecule (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coronene). PS: Suggested {Perl6, Parrot, Parrot languages, and CXAN} ecosystem slogan: "brainware of the semantic web".
