Following some of your suggestions I created 4 variations [1]. Firstly, I added some depth to the monitor, so that it looks more massive, secondly I made the monitor upright (I noticed my room-mate has a similarly positioned LCD monitor). And now to the variations:
All of them are good, but some of them are, IMO, better:
a) trying smaller computer - easier to recognise the shape, but it feels like something is missing...
This one is what I probably like the best. The feeling of something missing is probably due to the large distance between tower and monitor, I would try a more compact layout.
b) normal-sized computer, slightly changed position - better defined shape than the original, looks better than with the smaller computer
The big tower steals my focus.
c) use keyboard+monitor - this one is my favourite, also has an advantage of sharing the same metaphor with the same icon from gnome icon theme [2]
I like it too. Maybe if the keyboard overleaps a bit the base of the monitor?
d) following Mo's suggestions - similar positioning like in bluecurve, only with echo perspective
Here I feel like a lot of space is wasted.
I attach PNGs, SVGs are at fedorapeople [1]. I've created only 48x48 (time constraints). I will create other sizes when we decide which one to use. Thanks for your comments, Martin References: [1] http://mso.fedorapeople.org/echo/ [2] http://people.freedesktop.org/~jimmac/icons/
