Re: [PHP] PHPhish Logo
As I started all these I propose to go to next stage of discuss: i.e. drawing proposed logos. We've got plenty of variants... So if anyone has enough free time and ability to develop a GRAPHICAL logo - lets post them!

Re: [PHP] PHPhish Logo
Not that I think PHP needs a mascot, but I have always liked the mole/groundhog. Someone even drew up some logos based on that at some point.

RE: [PHP] PHPhish Logo
How about the "Phrog"? It's sort of a marine animal as well... Don't think there are any trademark infringements there. Although my guess is Phish wouldn't mind our using the 'Phish'. PHP is hardly in the same industry as the band... Or - how about "Phundulus"? http://zeus.mbl.edu/public/mrc/animals.php?func=detail&myID=F3196&source _myID=D1 Some quotes from the description: "most abundant species" "very hardy, existing in an environment of extremes" Seems appropriate, no?
