Any of these would be fine to me, or none. I also like the idea of  
just having the logo, and maybe in small print the URL below it.

What I don't like are versions or compatibility lists -- this stuff  
changes all the time, and I don't want to buy a new shirt whenever we  
make a new release or improve an engine. And I think it wouldn't look  
that good, and what purpose would it serve anyway? "Hey dude, look at  
how many games ScummVM supports!" -- "Huu? What is this ScummVM, and  
what are those games, I can't read them, their names are printed so  
small."  ;). And then there are the legal troubles using the names.  
Nah, better not.



Bye,
Max
