Fungi the Dingle dolphin.

That has strong “mobile phone company” vibes about it.

I mean, pretty much all 30,199 of the options do. But it is from them the logo must be chosen.

A cow isn't the worst

we can think of it as mythic

Leyendecker's featured work in the Wikipedia piece is awesome. Surely an influence on the artists for Slaine when the strip went to lavish colour?

Looks a bit Norse to me.

Keep it simple. Harp.

Absolutely agree. Also looks pagan

My mother suggested a sheela na gig but sadly I don't think they have the icon for that.

We used to have a poster called Sheila Na Gig. I didn't know at the time what her name meant.

If you filter it it narrows it down to 6000 or so as most of them are just different weightings of the same design.

But I couldn't find anything suitable.

I did find one that looks like the Four Courts but that's very Dublincentric.

There were some "comedy" ones like explosions, rifles, cups of tea but only we get to make jokes about that.

Why is the sheela na gig "lol"?

Hmm, must nearly be time up on the poll but don't quite remember and don't know how to find out...

Anyway, get your votes in those who are undecided.

In the meantime, it's looking like a big win for the harp.

 

[Shippou-Sensei]

Harp is a classic but feels like the boring option.

Of the icons I've seen I'm probably team Dolphin but admit local bias.

can we have the little cowie back?

 

[Shippou-Sensei]

The cow is a pretty good design

And it could be worse....
