A new Curl logo

Originally proposed logo looks so much better than the accepted one. Perfect example of client interfering with suggestions that result in something safe but boring.

The new logo is nice, certainly cleaner and more better-looking than the old one.

However, the association for me is very much to PCB design since the lines with hollow circles look like tracks with vias or just pads for through-hole components. See, for instance, the background on KiCad's (an actual PCB design program) site: http://kicad-pcb.org/.

This "inspiration" was visible in the first suggestion too, the one with the c-as-symbol also makes the c look like circuit board tracks. Strange.

I didn't even know it had an old logo! Looks good.
