I remember what I said in the other post...i'm entitled to change my mind if things become a whole lot worse than I expected. =o)
I have always been of the opinion that unnecessary changes should necessarily be improvements. The only image listed here that comes close to this requirement is dsl-propaganda-1, although even that has its problems. The text is virtually unreadable to someone who doesn't already know what it says, so is pretty much just a distraction (EDIT: i see the text was removed in dsl-propaganda-4, which makes it much cleaner and easier on the eyes). The globe doesn't really make any sense to me...it appears as though this graphic was made by adding a "4" to a KDE networking or browser desktop icon. If I *had* to pick a new one, this would be it.
The other four, to be completely honest, are simply not very good. Sunset and New Tux both have messy lines, and that triangle on the inside top of the 4 is a powerful distraction. Water is just terrible...those online javascript avatar wizards from years ago come to mind. The shape of the lighted areas of Wooden looks a lot like a swastika...serious no-no.
Please don't take my comments as intentionally harsh or personal. Your desire to improve DSL is definitely a good thing, but I just really don't see any reason to replace Tux with something that is of lower quality.
