It seems a significant portion of open source projects pick some animal, almost as some type of "mascot", and that is cool. There isn't one example, however, that I can think of where such website looks like some page on National Geographic. From penguins to tortoises to bats, they all have a smallish and tastefully done emblem (nearly always cartoon-like) of their chosen animal, usually sitting non-intrusively in the top left corner of the site. I vote for simply using the "paw" (/images/splash_source/paw.png). It is a beautiful piece of artwork.

I had the "National Geographic" impression too... I did like the proposal from Bee Jay ( http://img41.imageshack.us/img41/676/lazwebnewsubpage030210.png )

But yes whatever icon/animal, IMHO it should be one of the ones already in use.


A related topic that's been bothering me: can we please discuss a name change for Lazarus as well? It's not like a name change will hurt the project at this stage, methinks...

I don't see why changing the name. Any Name except for "Pascal RAD-IDE" needs branding => users have to learn to associate it with a pascal RAD-IDE.
