if its that important, email the people who trademarked/copyrighted the design, and ask for their permission.

i think because the mods were asked to make some new tars and they did, that they belong to AT... could be wrong... i'm trying to make sure.

They do belong to AnandTech. If it is that important to use it ask Zuni and Anand for permission.

The icon was done by forum member MechBgon, but I don't know who retains the rights to it (or whether that has ever been discussed)

It was discussed. It became sole property of AnandTech.
