That has been my criticism of many of Mandrivas icons (the user icons , for example): they look cartoonish and lack what the marketing types refer to as "high touch". They would be fine in a distro targeted at children, but not adults who consider themselves as cutting-edge. As an aside, I don't care for the "Tux" logo either for the same reason, but if you had to go with that style, I prefer someting with an edge. http://www.decalsusa.com/images/badtz%20maru%20colors.GIF (off-topic, but I'm in an off-topic-ish mood). -- Hoyt
