What emotion would you add, if you could?

Personally, I don't see why POV-Ray needs a logo (or a mascot, or any of
the other shiny-glittery marketing-type crap people want to give it),
but I always thought this was a pretty cool one.. and ignore Chris Huff,
who has lots of good ideas but seems obsessed with making this thing
into a photorealistic human eye (yeah, THAT'D make a good logo.. not :P
) or insisting that it's a stylized hydrogen atom. He might have a point
about rotating the tail slightly clockwise, though.

One odd thing that I notice about the large color version: the colors
don't appear smooth, instead they seem slightly dithered. Is this image
24-bit? Did the JPEG compression do this, or is that the way it
originally appears? It's theoretically possible that 24 bits is too
granular to allow for smooth gradation (I've seen it happen before), but
I don't know if that's the case here...
