Many of those are on one basic template.  I have no expertise to
advice on the choice of greys, but I do like MetaPost.  I have created
a basic metapost encoding of your logo7, and placed it at
<http://evenmere.org/~bts/haskell-logo/>.

I'm not entirely thrilled with its use of explicit constants to end
the equal sign or place the groin of the lambda, but this'll do for a
first draft.  A PDF generated from that MetaPost file is there as
logo-0.pdf for easy evaluation.  I experimented with the PDF-to-SVG
converter at <http://www.tlhiv.org/MetaPost/tools/mptosvg/>, but do
not expect anyone to be thrilled with the results who must edit them.

I also experimented with potrace.  The results will are wiggly. They
may be inspected at .../potrace/.
