In the proposed logo, the lines between the petals are hard to see at
135px, and are almost invisible at 75px. With no shading, it just
looks like a yellow blob.

The solid brown circle in the middle draws the eye, it seems large and
dominating, and it doesn't match the colour of the original.

I'm not opposed to switching to a vector logo, I just think we should
try to do a proper job of it, say by contracting a graphic designer.
It doesn't need to be expensive.

I don't know what file you're using as a source when you scale up the
logo: I couldn't find Brion's full-resolution original on Commons.
It's in /trunk/artwork in Subversion, admittedly only at 612px width,
still too small for print, but definitely better than trying to scale
it up from 135px.
