Ultimately I far prefer the æ but I'll survive with the other symbol; I just won't be as happy about it but I'm sure I'll get used to it in time.
I'm not invested in Aeon but read most of the Altcoin threads since its all very addictive. Personally, its' no contest, æ just looks nicer...plus the current logo is lowercase (so you would be loosing the link between the two).
Yeah I wouldn't get too attached to the current logo. Is was created in five minutes by the original developers and almost certainly will have to change.
It's just a blue square with a basic windows font. It's completety illegible at 16x16, doesn't represent any currency symbol at all, and if expressed in monochrome would just be a standard windows font.
So that won't be sticking around for very long.
