The Abe's Oddysee launch screen. Haven't you seen it before?

EDIT: Yes, that was a joke. I'm not sure, really; it looks like a Glukkon face in the middle, but what would Glukkons be doing with a stone seal?

Abe's Oddysee running in an X11 environment?

EDIT: Oh, I thought he meant he wondered what it was because because he wants to run AO on his new Mac.

That thing in the background is the Oddworld version of the Quake logo.

The sharp pointed things to the left and right of the Glukkon head represent the devil's horns. This is to emphasise the evil deeds the Glukkons are going to do in the game. This is me bullshitting by the way.

Is it not perhaps a glukkon seal from the age of alchemy before they became industrialists. A la Oldger type design.

I don't know, but I've always wondered. In fact, I think there's an old thread where I asked exactly the same question and no-one had any answers then.

EDIT: That last sentence wasn't meant as a criticism. Just proof that I had wondered about it and never got any answer.

It’s the OWI logo, upside-down, with a Glukkon face where the purple gem would be.

Case closed, let’s get drunk.

I liked to imagine that it was something the Glukkons sculpted back when they were spiritualists.
