We have always used a green cube as our logo and as John has already 
pointed out, there are only so many colors. As to leaves, we used a 
tree in one advertising campaign for Dr. Dobbs Journal and as a result, 
we are using the tree graphic in the community section of our web site 
because a community is like a tree (hopefully growing ever larger). And 
the person that came up with the tree idea was the person that does our 
ad design. We no longer use the tree graphic in advertising. We only 
ran it for 4 or 5 issues of one magazine.

I have just realized what the similarity is that some of you are 
talking about. The Staz logo appears to be a floppy disk tilted at an 
angle. The basic shape of which is a hexagon.  The outline of our cube 
is also a hexagon as well. And of course they are both green but the 
similarities end there.

There are many logos from many different companies and have things in 
common with others but until just now, I could not have told you what 
the color of the Staz logo is or what it looks like.
