Yes, more inspiration needed. I have uploaded what has been suggested so 
far to http://ourcomments.org/Emacs/NewIcons.html. Personally i like the 
gnu+M-x best (but that is maybe because I made it ;-). Though the gnu 
reminds me a bit of a dog. Nothing bad with dogs but the image needs 
some finishing.

It is quite tought making anything with 16x16 pixels actually - don't 
know whether that is good or bad for inspiration and creativity here 
;-)  -- To me ideas for a logo should be thought of together with the 
icon. I do not know how other people feel about the splash logo now, but 
I like it. That does not mean there are other good alternatives of course!
