Hi, as I am one of the 'young folks' (more or less) I will give some comments... Am Samstag, 28.

While I think that Tux is cute and nice (I do have one on my keyring, a Tux-base-cap and a Tux-tie) I don't think people will recognize its picture especially if he is wearing a headphone. We are talking about a stage here? Where flashing colored lights allow only short views of the gear? I would go for one of the single-color logos of http://www.linuxaudio.org/logo, http://lad.linuxaudio.org/logo/reloaded/index.html (its single-color-version is at http://www.arnoldarts.de/lad_reloaded-one_color.svg) or the old one at http://www.arnoldarts.de/lad-logo-plain-sw.svg I am thinking (and planning) to spray paint the new single-color lad-logo on my gear in the near future. Another factor is coolness: Do you want everybody to recognize you as a nerd just by seeing your linux-Tux (with some bad retouched headphone) or do you want to undergo the nerdness-radar by using a cool, nice and more abstract logo? I think (and hope) that in the later case more people will ask about the meaning of that logo instead of just some freaks going to talk to you about the latest tricks in their favorite window-manager (which they don't really need because the manage just a bunch of xterms)... > Where might I purchase stickers of this type, suitable for laptop > application? I want to stand up and be proud, and "represent", as the young > folks say these days. Create a simple mask of the logo of your choice (I would go for the penguin of linuxaudio in your case) and spray-paint it in white on your gear...
