What About "Arabeyes" in english without the ".org" ?
4. Arabeyes ( English)

What about Bi-lang logo? ( Arabeyes - 3arabayz) ? 
I am not for a purly English Logo .. specialy that it will be in Englush 
Language .. I find the Name "Arabeyes" really nice .. and I do like it .. but 
if there should be a logo .. then it should be either Lang-Nutral ( like a 
Picture) or bi-lang
