Wow your right, I'm guessing some loser brought that up and they changed it, probably wasn't a great big of a deal.

Actually that logo signifies 'Ahimsa' mean Non-violence. And this image has been adopted as logo of many religions, political pa rites and organizations just to promote that they follow non-violence (especially in India).

Logically this image doesn't signifies anything related with Jainism. It is just that it is used to preach Ahimsa in Jainism. Literally it doesn't have any significance with Jainism (logically). Like this image of swastika has.HTTP://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image:Swastik4.svg which signifies the four stages where a soul take birth, and whole universe.
