3D version of logo
Not sure if anyone has created a 3D version of the logo, but here's one I created in Blender:

Needs a lot of work, but it's a start. :D
I always wondered, why the logo has this rough look, like the lines are not drawn straight. Imho it would look a lot more professional, if the lines were straight and not like now.
Maybe you can make a logo that has completely clean lines? : P
Absolutely. That was a slight design flaw.
Here's the best I could do with the current model:

the logo is as is because it is reminiscent of debian :)
how is it reminiscent of Debian, if the style of it is completely different? Debian is stylized to look like it has been done by a brush, Trisquel looks like someone didn't know how to work with vector graphics.
Don't take me wrong, I like the harmonic/archaic look of the logo, it just doesn't look like it should.
Here is a high-res Debian logo.
Here is the same for Trisquel.
The way the lines are, there is nothing reminiscent of Debian in the Trisquel-logo...
look the file
at www.art4trisquel.org you can see some variations of the logo :)
Actually, that Debian logo still has the "brushed" look, no non-straight lines as in the Trisquel logo.
About art4trisquel: yes, that's more like it :-) These are almost perfect, I'd actually buy that those were made on purpose like that. The logos I see everywhere else, like the splash screen while booting, just seem to have an unintentional non-linearity.
