Hi Robert, I played around with the 'E' and added parens to it, to reflect the syntax checking of the expression editor [0][1]. It was just in Photoshop, as I didn't have time to work in Inkscape (slower process on the Mac).
I think the icon needs to stand on its own (without text, see slide #3) and needs a little something more than just an E. The Bob the builder icon doesn't seem to scale down very well (see slide #4). I tried a small wrench inside the parens, but like many other symbols I tried, it didn't legibly scale down to 16x16 very well.
