The icy C makes me think someone had a dyslexic moment and wanted to make a "CryogenicBullion" logo...
Why? There is no CGB on it and a C alone refers to cent, which is worth very little. With respect to the one trying to create something, I know it's a lot of work but it looks bad.
A good logo contains easy recognizable features or signs. The name Cryptogenic suggests the coin is something obscure, something that no one knows where it came from, a secret treasure. Bullion we know it's the big plates of gold and silver so much closer to the brandname.

Wow the new logo that someone posted above is impressive!
Everyone here please take a moment to vote for CGB in the poll as favorite coin. Right now there is 10 votes which is already above average for the new coins but if we can get a real big number together it will sure draw some extra attention

Why not make a bullion like the silver/gold bullions, it's different from all the other coins and can easier look more interesting. Shiny glimmer that represents a high value.

The above posted blue/white logo does not look representable and recognizable at all. It's too simplistic with just a C in it and does not shine.

August 1, 2013 Update:
Yesterday was truly an interesting day for CGB and the crypto community! The subsidy halving set to take place at 50k blocks did not occur due to an oversight in the code. The CGB team has responded, identified the issue and made the necessary corrections. The subsidy halving will now take place at block 55k. It is imperative that everyone download the latest client BEFORE block 55k. We apologize for the inconvenience and appreciate your continued support. Please be prepared for some additional major announcements coming for CGB!
Please download the updated client on OP.
Mac wallet also updated on OP. Thank you Maxpower!!!

love the concept but the image needs to be sharpened up imho, ice is sharp
yeah, I think you're trying to go with the frost texture but it's just quite not working...how about a polished/shiny texture? Looking good so far!
We have outsourced some of our logo/design work but more options is good! By the way, client update imminent.

I was a little bored today, ended up messing around with photoshop & a modeling program. Came up with this:
I'm not sure if you're looking for a new logo, but if you are, I can fiddle a bit more when I've got some free time.

Can you make the C larger just a tad? You picked the right color, that's the main color of the CGB website in development.

I posted above guys, block reward will half at block 55000 to give pool ops and exchanges, etc enough time to update client. But instead of block rewards halving again at block 100,000, it will have at 95000. So at the second halving of block rewards there will be 750K total coins just as with the previous halving schedule.
New fix:
55K blocks @ 10 = 550,000 (up to block 55,000)
40k blocks @ 5 = 200,000 (up to block 95,000)
750K total coins at block 95000
All is well that ends well...

Only, 1k more blocks? That doesn't give me enough time to get more CGB!

Oh wait... Petr1fied already posted the correct code. lol 
The code should have been:
if((nHeight>0)&&(nHeight<=50000)) nSubsidy=10*COIN; // 500,000 coins
else if((nHeight>50000)&&(nHeight<=100000)) nSubsidy=5*COIN; // 250,000 coins
else if((nHeight>100000)&&(nHeight<=150000)) nSubsidy=2.5*COIN; // 125,000 coins
else if((nHeight>150000)&&(nHeight<=200000)) nSubsidy=1.25*COIN; // 62,500 coins
else if((nHeight>200000)&&(nHeight<=250000)) nSubsidy=0.75*COIN; // 37,500 coins
else if((nHeight>250000)&&(nHeight<=300000)) nSubsidy=0.375*COIN; // 18,750 coins
else if((nHeight>300000)&&(nHeight<=333334)) nSubsidy=0.1875*COIN; // 9,375 coins
else if(nHeight>333334) nSubsidy = 0.01
I agree with mercSuey about how this should be fixed.
