We gotta start somewhere, right? Here are two ideas (didn't spend a huge amount of time making them pretty).

Maybe if the background were blue - bright green wouldn't match the forum style.
I've iconized both of qq's images (attached).

Even though it has nothing to do with cubing. I don't use names, but I added one so you know which is for speedsolving.

I like this one, and I think if you spent the time to make it pretty, it'd be pretty cool.
Edit: 3d cubies?

We can has high-res?
I can easily change colors, spacings, and projection.

Wow. That looks pretty.

you should get rid of all of the colors except the green and orange. it will make the SS more obvious.

I didn't even see it until this post. So yeah, I agree.

@lucas ... Ninja'd!! 
Nice idea qq & HowSuneIsNow!
Here's a VisualCube version:
... but lucas's one is much better
I quite like the other colours there, but maybe they should be reduced in intensity, like this:
... I knew there would be a use for this ... anyway, in icon format:
64x64
32x32
16x16
8x8
<-- a bit too small methinks :/

^^^Cride, I like yours better, thought the colours seem slightly off.

Maybe we could do something with this? It's just an image of a cube with all the black taken out.
Feather the edges, add some gradient, and some strategically placed text, and I think it could be an option. This kind of reminds me of the WCA logo:

The 'SS' pattern doesn't really scale very well. Smaller than 32x32 the 'S' is unrecognisable. Maybe something with a black background and fewer colours will look nicer after scaling. Poss something like this:
... and miniaturised:
EDIT: I think its probably better like this tho:
EDIT2 ... or with a subtle top-layer:
k, I'll stop faffing now :rolleyes:
@lucas, would you be able to achieve something similar with PovRay lighting effects? Ie. set the green & orange squares to glow/fluoresce, then set the light source to be underneath the cube so that the U-face appears dull? I think it would look pretty cool using a proper renderer

It just occurred to me. If speesolving.com uses the 'SS' cube pattern as its official logo, then we also have an official alg:
U2 B2 U2 B2 L R F2 D2 F2 U2 L' R'
U2 B2 U2 B2 L R F2 D2 F2 U2 L' R'

Yeah, thats the old logo.
The URL bar or tab is where the favicon would show up though; the default IE logo is there in your browser.
