Re: NetBSD Mascot Proposal

Hi all,

The mascot by itself is an awesome design and work ( all variants ), however i personally feel that long term fans of NetBSD are here because they already love the project.

Maybe the idea is to get the attention of more people in a specific target group. What would they consider cool and interesting to try ?

Regards,

Nikolay

Hello,

Thanks for input another variation was like this but thought horns might be devilish that people might not like it :P

Hello, as a long-time netbsd user I like the idea of gaining a mascot
with some dinosaur-like features, however, I hope we can spare the happy
and childish smiley-like graphics and hair puff. As far as I've
experienced our user-base are mainly old-school veterans, which is quite
the opposite of the depicted character.
