"is used world-wide as a lucky symbol" and "used as fortune symbol for as long as I can remember"
Oh, really? It was impolite and unclassy. There is a fine line. Daily fortunes is popular all around, orkut always had that. Farm games are cloned all around. Apps extend the platform, I extended with the clover, others extended with the Cookie Fortune. Be creative, use a horseshoe, or doesn't use a new picture at all, it didn't need to use the clover too.
