haha! I just learned something new about Hippos! I personally think it's
a lot better than Ruth, but that's one great thing about OpenSim... With
some work, it can truly be "each to his own." :-)

If it were up to me, we'd find something more appealing than a hippo
for the mascot. The inheritance of anything from Second Life to me is
pretty distasteful.
Not likely to be a popular opinion so I don't expect much to come of
it, but my 0.02$US anyway.
(I mean seriously, a fat, sluggish river-dwelling herbivore that is so
close to the next level down on the food chain that the carp literally
follow it around to eat as it defecates -- why was that ever a mascot
for anything in the first place?)

Yes, same here.
But since we are talking about the famous Hippos that everybody
knows and uses, I took this opportunity to try to find out if
anyone here knows anything about their origin. Are these nebadon's?

Well, I found not any license information for the Baby and
Mother Hippo that I used as a base. In fact, I got them from
your mega-region "Diva's Office"; but I have seen them with
full permissions and free to copy at various places in OSgrid,
too. I assumed that they are free to use. As long as there are
no restrictions on those hippos, the hippo avatar as a
derivative work is in the public domain.

Super cute!
Is this really public domain?

Great job! I'm going to use it for our Neutral avatar.
Thanks!

Hello Ai,
Your idea of using a hippo as a starter avatar is
great. I took the
freely available Baby Hippo and made an avatar
from it. See
http://www.osgrid.org/forums/viewtopic.php?f=20&t=2705
<http://www.osgrid.org/forums/viewtopic.php?f=20&t=2705>.
Does this meet your notion for such an avatar?

Anyone feel up to creating a starter avatar
that looks like a hippo
that
can be distributed as an IAR? It would be a
great addition to allow a
male, female and "neutral" avatar as starters
and follow the
OpenSimulator logo style with its 3 "users" on it.
