Icon under GPL, based in tux-network.png, under GPL, Tux_law2 is over transparency and can be used over an wallpaper. I think that it is useful to Linux marketing, specially against the actions that software owners practice against Linux and GPL. It hands the scales, a traditional symbol of justice, over the globe, indicating that Linux and GPL issues in a righter world, and a table written GPL and, into a border, which means in index, the number twelve in romans, meaning the roman law of twelve tablets, and, by extension, the laws for general, indicating that GPL and Linux is not lawless but lawful and right. A woman with a scale and a table with the number twelve is a traditional symbol of justice for the lawyers, used by artists, like in a picture retracting the French revolution. This woman was taken by the ancient Greek idol named Artemis, but, of course, tux_law2.png doesn't invoke divinity, which is only proper of the only God himself, being only a marketing symbol. Since it is under GPL, it can be perfected by other developers, e.g., in it's graphic appearance, under another name. At this time, this icon can be found in my blog http://thornbushlinuxlaw.blogspot.com/
