There are instructions on how to draw a heart in Inkscape here

Otherwise you might need to either learn design and Inkscape or employ someone to design it for you.

Off topic:
I love the font in the logo, which is it?

Does this work? I chose red to suggest it's a heart, anything else makes it look like a butt :mrgreen:

hmmm... For some reason I think I'd be sweet if the "lovers" was the same color as the hat? I dunno, just a suggestion.
It's probably my monitor setting but if not maybe the red should be a little bit less bright.

That had does look like a hat though- not a butt ;)

Hey, maybe i can help you.
I'm working for a personal 16x16 icon set, and a chef hat was a good challenge so this is what i've done:

Prkos looks to have the the right idea, but you maybe need to over emphasise the top 1/3rd or 2/3rds of the heart shape a bit more or reduce the bottom 1/3rd of the hat for the desired effect.

The toque? Its shape is really interesting and it's also pretty hard to make. Good luck on your project!
