I suck at graphics, but hopefully this will serve as some inspiration for someone more graphically capable than me. How about lots of little e's orbiting the big #B .... EDIT: little shiny, silver E's (quicksilver mercury like) orbiting big, gold blazing B# .... electrum alloy

lol i love how you're all collaborating to design Electrum a better logo. we should definitely use a logo made by the community. if tuxavant or anyone else wants to organise that, that would be awesome. the concept or history behind it would be very cool and fitting for Electrum.

I'm not sure if those thin orbit lines are good for small scale logos or icon.

Maybe something like this will work better: How about continuing the 'atomic orbit' theme by using electron orbitals and combining it with an infinity icon (to denote Big Number Crypto). e.g. combine: Infinity symbol: Electron orbitals: There are some nice ray traced 2p orbitals here: http://www.sciencephoto.com/image/2182/530wm/A1520132-2p_electron_orbitals-SPL.jpgHere is the 2px orbital: As electrum is an alloy of silver and gold perhaps the blue should be changed to metallic silver.

Here is a drawing I just made, reflecting my initial idea and the colors proposed by grondilu: it is a svg file, feel free to improve it: https://ecdsa.org/electrum_logo.svg

I suggest replacing the round bitcoin mini-pictures by fat colored U+0243 symbols.

Here is a variant with broken arcs (as in the first image posted by slush): not sure which one is better...

Is this still the place to get the code to build the server from?

It's here: https://github.com/spesmilo/electrum-serverI agree it could be made easier to find. Perhaps add a direct link to it on the website?

That would be great. Throw it up at the bottom of the download page.
