It's not bad, but the 'TSA' micro-logo isn't something I'd prefer...

I also like Emmanuel's plain-text one, although I'd color the first three 
letters, not the first two.  (One whole syllable - the 'element name' thing 
only works if it's explained.)

In general I think the best ideas are simple - Tarsnap isn't some graphic 
monstrosity, it's a command-line backup tool.  Tell people what it is, and 
get out of the way - like the tool does.

Just personal opinions of a non-graphic designer.  ;)
