The fact that funtoo inverts (vertically) into tnufoo is something we could turn into a cool logo, one way or another. For starters, the euro symbol...
?
...already happens to be a nice f mirrored as a t, which not only captures the first mirrored letter of a funtoo-over-tnufoo image...it also spells out the first letters of fun and too. This gives us a potential logo or logo element that can actually be typed as a keyboard character. Another thing in there that has potential for branding coolness is the visual similarity of the ? to a G: when I've been playing around with funtoo-over-tnufoo images, the tnufoo has sometimes looked like gnufoo. And funtoo is basically gnu-fu.
In terms of color, yellow is a "fun" color that also happens to be the inverse of the gentoo purple that the old logo used. Separating the euro symbol into a yellow/purple top/bottom would distinguish it from the currency symbol, and also go some way towards symbolizing funtoo's being built on a gentoo portage foundation.
Or we could just spoof the Slackware Tux and do Larry smoking weed.
