http://cvs.drupal.org/viewcvs/*checkout*/drupal/contributions/docs/marketing... This is my suggestion for the "Powered by Drupal" icon we'd use. I actually would love to see this somewhere above the fold if possible. Not sure where, as tabs, and search and other things are still a moving target.... oooh You could do it just to the right and below the search box? Maybe... just babbelling at this point.

I don't see sticking branding all over such a theme as a feature. I see it as a drawback.
The druplicon watermark was my biggest issue with marvin2k for instance. No real site will keep the watermark there, and it just makes more work for the average person running the site, to remove it. I agree with Adrian that watermarks are difficult to remove and sites should be simple to get up and running in no time but I disagree with the branding compromise. Druplicon as a site logo will be the first thing any new site will change so why not keep him smiling and visible on first install.
Witness the desire to make sites 'not look like drupal sites'. Ship a
little
25x80 (or was it 20x85) 'powered by drupal' logo, in all themes, but don't make more work for designers. +1 for the powered by logo something that should be on every shipped theme IMHO, although we can all notice similarities, even in civicspace that this is indeed very drupal, having the powered by will definitely create more awareness to newcomers.
