I'm very wary of this sort of thing though -- I think if the core
idea/image is good, a mediocre designer adding "more design" often just
mucks things up and makes it tacky.  Simplicity is a lot easier to get
right.

I'd pick a striking graphic associated with the Evolver (my fave: the
wacky-font "evolver"), and use _just that_.
