Hi, I wasn't sure who to send this to, but I think the webmaster is the place. I can't contact the "PHP Group" directly. So I only got into php recently setting up a micro-site for adding items into a database for my company, and displaying them nicely afterwards. However, I am more a designer. While I was learning I was using www.php.neta lot, of course, and one thing I noticed was how old the logo and design of the site looked. So I went ahead and designed a new logo for PHP, which can be seen on my blog here: http://www.matthewlettini.com/archives/412 A lot of programming languages today have been updated and marketed better than them just existing. Ruby is marketed very well, and Python and other scripting languages have updated logos and sites. PHP still looks like its from 1995. I'm not sure having better marketing will really alter how many people use PHP, but it might, and if not its still nice to keep your image looking fresh and updated. So, I don't just want to give you a new logo, but if you would like to talk about a possibility of using this logo I would love to. It would look great for my portfolio, obviously. I also do webdesign, if you wanted that updated to. Please get back to me with your thoughts if you'd like. Thank you for your time. -- // Matthew Lettini http://www.matthewlettini.com/
