Ahhh ... don't you just love getting consensus on logos (not possible)? Sorry Bruno MDP, I know you guys have been busting hump on the new design. But FWIW, I think the new logo is a bit boring. There, I've said it. I probably deserve to get kicked for that. Anyway, I prefer the 2 logos by Solie

Great - just text - I am happy. I think the new design of the site means the color scheme in (A) is most appropriate. The subtle snake is good. Could you use lowercase letters instead? The .py extension is always lowercase. The color scheme in (B) would have worked great in the previous design.

Web2py deserves a great logo. Begging forgiveness from those who have labored so hard on the logo, none of the logos I've seen does web2py sufficient justice. Some come closer than others. In the absence of more options, I'd go with B. I like C but I agree with Richard that C emphasizes the b2p
