I know that Matt Mullenweg and Matt Thomas die a little each time they see WordPress fan art that uses a faux logo. I only notice the chubby W because I’ve been edumacated.
MT (the real) has updated WordPress.org/about/buttons with official WordPress logos in pngs and vector image formats.
WordPress Logos and WordPress Buttons
There are also WordPress desktop wall paper in various official colors and sizes. The official WordPress colors are given in a variety of code systems. Pantone 7468 anyone?
Fan Art
The fan art page could use some fresh contributions.
These naturalized WordPress logos would be nice additions:
WordPress India Independence Logo by Allan Fernandes
One or more of the WordPress Malaysia Independence Logos by Avijit Paul. My favorite are the one’s with the flower for the O:

What is your favorite WordPress art?
Lorelle’s category icons are brilliant. For example, she uses this image for WordPress News:
Anyone know the creator of this popular images?
Same day correction: previously the article suggested the font is Dante, but both Matts have come to my rescue. It used to be the WordPress logo font. When Jason Santa Maria designed the new logo a few years ago, he chose the lovely Mrs. Eaves.
Adam Freetly identified the creator of the “lens flare” logo as being Dan Philibin.

Thanks for the write-up, Lloyd! Just one thing — Dante used to be the WordPress logo font. When Jason Santa Maria designed the new logo a few years ago, he chose the lovely Mrs. Eaves.
The old WP logo was Dante, the new one is Mrs. Eaves. Maybe we should add a link to Fonts.com from that page?
Almost all WP logos here.

I have a t-shirt from that Dela Serna’s WordPress logo.
Wow! Thanks for posting the WordCamp Philippines logo here!
Really nice collection of logos here. Really proud that someone from Malaysia design one in the post.
Second time Andrew dela Serna’s logo and design are featured here. Thank you sooo much!
from my point of view, the last one is the best
Saw the last one on Smashing Magazine too. Followed the tutorial because the general tips are so useful for making a very slick piece of work out of any roughly circular logo or object. Great concept!
Wordpress Pinoy Camp is simply great… any Filipino can understand that. great job Andrew dela Serna…
You just gave me an idea - make the W in a stylized flame. I don’t know how to do that yet - but I’ll give it a try and send it to you if it turns out.
