  The aspect ratio is right. The torus _is_ elliptical.
  Note the half-torus of the P-letter.

Ok, here you are.

I chose the primary color red, green, and blue.
I tinted them carefully so they had the same "weight".

I also considered the symbolic values of the colors:
The face with the name "POV" is green, symbolizing happiness and hope.
The face with the text is blue, symbolizing intellect and breadth of view.
The face with the image (box) is red, symbolizing excitement and creativity.

I know it's far-fetched, but it's nevertheless a reason to use this
combination instead of any other of the six.

Hope you like it...

Windows also supports large icons. In W95 in the settings for the screen go
to the color settings, choose icon and adjust the size as you please. 32
pixels and 48 pixels are the standards that the icon format supports.

Greetings,

Rune

I was actually thinking of having the POV be red, green, and blue, and 
having the other parts be red, green, blue, or equal mixes like yellow, 
but I like this version.

This looks to me like something a five year old with crayons would do.
A logo for POV-Ray should be much more professional and have a lot of
class.

Oh, you mean like:

or

http://www.transmeta.com/images/crusoelogo.jpg

Sorry. Couldn't resist. But that lucent one is a good one. Reminds me of the
Dilbert strip where they hire the Dogbert consulting company to design them a
logo. He's drinking coffee and by the end thay say something like "so, when
do you make us a logo", he looks under his cup and says "I just did".

Sounds like a good idea Ken!

You'll be able to vote for any of the submitted logos and
if they haven't got class enough you can submit your own!

Great isn't it? :-)

Rune

Heh, that speaks volumes.
The sphere is now overwhelming the plane in that one I think.  I had an art
teacher who once said art needs to never be symmetrical and yet still have
balance.

  What old way? I haven't modified it since I made it.
