To Do:
Design an icon that represents the software
The icon must be 48x48 px. in size

Before I submit my logo for the competition I just want to say something to those that are considering logo designing.

ALL major companies that are into software development, or even make logos for that matter from Adobe, Microsoft, Apple, Canonical, all use SVG (Scalable Vector Graphics) to make their logos.

Here's a good article to understand why these organisations use SVG to make their logos, and Here's another.

Now with that being said and I do recommend those to check and read these articles IF you're considering making icons, logos, or headers for that matter. Never the less now I'll submit my logo for the contest. You'll also get the zip file which consists of the svg file (finished and what I stopped with, and named starter before I added any filters) So if you want to edit, or modify any of them (yes even those that are entering the contest) you can no strings attached.

Here's the zip file I already mentioned...
