Some knucklehead decided to come up with a list of the greatest punk rock logos. Well, aside from the obvious (Bad Religion, Pennywise, Blag Flag, 7 Seconds) he dropped some seriously obscure bands on us just to show how punk he is.
Well, here's the deal: If you create a logo and it's good and people like your product, you tend to lose your obscurity. Check McDonald's, Starbucks, Target, Apple, etc. I'm not saying that every good logo brings success to a band, but still I'm sure there are millions of businesses that have failed because they've failed to have a potential customer at hello.
That said, here are the logos I'd have included on the list, in no particular order.

So many people have this Screeching Weasel logo tattooed on them. Many more, I'm sure, than have the Flipper logo on them!
A classic, this logo pre-dates the current incarnation of the Vandals. This was from way back.
Jeez, I don't know if anything more can be said. Operation Ivy had such a huge impact for the short time they were in existence. Obviously, the logo is ubiquitous, as well.
The characture of singer Milo, adorned nearly ever album cover and most of the merchandise.
Probably the most-tattooed band logo on Earth. Even I want one!
Hard to argue with the impact of this one. The snarling bulldog seemed to perfectly represent Dickie Barrett's voice.
