All this "branding" sounds like branding cows. ;) Not the most 
pleasant procedure.

My humble opinion is while even D's syntax is so far away from 
being settled, not to mention the absense of RTL or IDE, it's way 
too early to brand anything.

Look at Java, PHP, or, say, Linux - all have pretty simple, or 
even weird, logos (fat penguin with tits? wtf?) and they never 
really cared about "branding" their creations, but they had 
tremendous success because they concentrated on the code quality 
instead.
