On the SciAm website http://www.sciam.com/partners/partner.cfm?partner=10A07B7E-BD48-2D3F-442D45EE7BF74C41" …

http://www.sciam.com/media/partnernetwork/10A07B7E-BD48-2D3F-442D45EE7BF74C41.jpg

but the logo (as distinct from the words) doesn't really say anything …

it doesn't say physics or talking …

I suppose it's intended to convey information going round the world …

but that could apply to anything, and certainly doesn't indicate any human contact.

Two faces talking would be better … or two electrons talking … or a goldfish in a space helmet … or …

Any ideas? :smile:​

Is that supposed to be PF's official logo? I don't see it anywhere on the site.

I've been playing around with it. Could be added in an update of the layout in the future.

Its in the PF award badges and the little green square next to the forums. :smile: I quite like it as it is.
