LOL, I guess Python is spoken for too ;) --Jon At 11:32 AM 12/11/2001 -0800, Andrew Chase wrote:

Maybe an animal beginning with "P" would be a good Mnemonic device (and good for alliteration; think "The PHP Panda" or "The PHP Platypus".) Hmm, I guess Panda and Platypus aren't particularly "powerful" animals, though. :/ Other animals beginning with "P": Pelican Panther (cheesy) Polliwog Protozoa Of course, the Penguin is already spoken for. :) Personally, I don't have a problem with the current PHP logo... From a marketing standpoint, I don't know; has MySQL become a more attractive prospect to the pointy haired bosses of the world since they streamlined their logo and added a Dolphin? It would be interesting to know. If PHP was going to adopt a mascot, I kinda like the idea of the Platypus. If you want to force a metaphor, think of PHP as an interesting language that fits between traditional scripting languages and the HTTP server - sort of like the Platypus is an interesting critter that fits somewhere between mammal and.. whatever else. :) -Andy -----Original Message----- From: Tim Ward [mailto:Tim.ward@stivesdirect.com] Sent: Tuesday, December 11, 2001 2:02 AM To: PHP; Valentin V.

      Subject:  [PHP] Logo proposal

      Hello world of php-programmers!

      It seemes to me PHP is very powerful tool and very popular among
      web-programmers, too. As for me I use php for solving web tasks for

2 years

      and I'm very satisfied with it.

      It seemes to me current PHP logo (can be found by
      http://www.php.net/gifs/logo.gif) doesn't suite to PHP. It's common

logo

      without any idea except using title in it.

      I propose to create and develop new PHP logo corresponding to its

power.

      My propose is WoodPecker (e.g. like Woody).

      Other propositions?
