Should Xfce change their logo?

[Stancel]

It's a rat. I really don't get it. Or maybe it's supposed to be a mouse, not a rat, so it's a pun because a mouse is also a computer accessory. That's the best I got.:popcorn::guitar::confused:

Mouse = small and fast

Maybe because its configuration is entirely mouse driven... but probably the reason above.

Why are you asking if they should change their logo? You haven't offered a reason to do so.

There are other things that are small and fast, but aren't rodents...

I mean, it gets worse with the Xubuntu logo. Ubuntu's logo is supposed to be three people standing in a circle with their arms connected. They put a rat in the center. It makes no sense to have three people standing around a rat. And based on the size comparisons, it must be one huge rat. Ubuntu is supposed to be about humanity, right? So where a rat comes into that, I can not possibly hope to comprehend...

Perhaps the mouse is above the people and it just appears large. ;)

I do not see the issue, they both look fine.

[Stancel]

Please don't take this thread TOO seriously, though....I was just poking fun. I know there are all kinds of animal logos for Linux. and of course all the Ubuntu versions are named after animals. so it's not a stretch to have a rat logo. I would never be so uptight to base my judgment on the logo being a rat.

[NightwishFan]

It's cool. :)

I like the SUSE logo the best. Chameleons rock.

Thats not the logo. This is the new Logo https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Brand?action=AttachFile&do=get&target=xubuntu.png

If we're correcting people, he was talking about Xfce, not Xubuntu.

I like the rat (more than I like xfce)

Correction, he was referring to that lightweight desktop that uses GTK.. Oh wait thats XFCE you are right. :oops:

Or..

But I'd really love to see Rat-man (http://www.rat-man.com/) sponsor XFCE anyway, to be honest..

some people have musophobia / muriphobia / suriphobia (fear of mice)

[koleoptero]

No.

[pwnst*r]

Some deep discussion.

[BrokenKingpin]

I don't care for the logo, but it doesn't bother me.

[Phrea]

I like the little mouse.
It looks innocent.
