I really like the Earth flag - it's better than most other versions I've seen, which are usually something very lazy like, "We just stuck a picture of the Earth on a flag."
Also, I didn't even realize Bentham's Bulldog's pfp was a more widely used symbol for utilitarianism - I thought it was just a logo he made for his blog until now. Another good design though. I particularly like the emblem version. It looks friendly, unlike the typical view of utilitarianism as "cold and calculating."
Thank you! I also like your pfp; having something move so your eye is drawn to it is a very clever way to stand out from the crowd. Upon seeing it I considered also turning my logo into a gif, but ultimately decided against it since it doesn't really fit with what it represents. That's not a problem for yours though since it's perfectly cohesive with both what it's depicting and your blog's name. Very nice.

It actually goes the other way around, in that the blog's name comes from the profile picture, which I set as my Google pfp many years ago.
