Otherwise we would just move from a KDE-related mascot to another project-related mascot.< What about a corvid? I must admit I seemed to have picked the wrong time when I tried to make a push for branding earlier. Then I got distracted by everything that wasn't TDE. Dark gray beak and feathers? Common crows have some unfortunate connotations, but they're tool users and have very good memories. They also may communicate among each other better than we give them credit for. If I were to start over, I could probably do a better job than what I did three years ago that probably no one remembers: http://www.dimensionality.com/tqtde/LB15_Mascot_Head.png There should be a vector version but I've only found the PNG. We also might want to think in terms of standardizing on colors and typefaces. An optimal typeface would have both one or more free versions and an availability from preferably more than one foundry with umpteen variants; optimal colors would have Pantone numbers and ideally cable (textile) and FS-595 (paint) equivalents. After all, at some point we might want a printed manual, logo or mascot hats, et c. 8)
