This is nothing more than an argument of appeasement and
has been explained before in this forum, please quit insulting
our intelligence. We all know that Beastie's place as the
logo has been supplanted, and your side won, and your crude
attempt to explain away Beastie is insulting. You won, be
content with that.
Wow, Ted a top-poster!
A professional evaluation of "beastie" showed he was not a logo and
had served as a poor-one at that in his ersatz role as a wanna-be
logo. (Note that I did not say that Beastie was poor but that he
had served as a poor logo based on professional criteria of what
makes a good logo). Beastie has his place.

That's all well and good, but I for one don't plan to replace the
"powered by"
beastie logo on any of my sites with that sex-toy. It would be
interesting to
see how many webmasters agree with me.
We have had this out before. No one is asking you or forcing you to
replace any beastie you have anywhere. Can me move on? The post I
made was specifically in response to one from Ted where he made
claims about professional reviews of the new logo.
For the record, the new logo doesn't impress me either.
move along

I would say that there isn't an old one. Beastie is a little bit
older
than FreeBSD and I would understand it as mascot, not as a logo.
So the
new logo is not a replacement, but rather something that is
missing for
many years; and Beastie is still alive.
