I asked a friend of mine, Manfred Spiller,[1] who is a professional graphic designer, if he'd like to create a Lisp logo and this is what he came up with:

I liked them all (including KMP's). I did something else though, and asked a client. He was amazed that we'd wish to advertise/disclose something that's giving us an immense competitive edge! Perhaps there's that dimension to consider also?

Even with a couple of nice logos and some grass-roots advertisement 99.9% of the unwashed masses won't get it. I don't think what we're doing is really dangerous... :)
Cheers, Edi.

Very nice.
I notice that the web page suggests attributing the logo to the creator, but I didn't see any identification of him on that page. I guess you can get it through the "Impressum" link at the bottom, but adding Herrn Spiller's name to the text would be a good idea.

However, I always tought of what animal should be associated with (Common) Lisp. The color of the CLTL2 always made me think of a dolphin. How about changing the lizard to a dolphin?
