Inky is so cute! Or should it be called Inkdrop?

I'd love to see this idea revised, polished and incorporated into the official branding. We should have something like your video coded into an SVG animation and put on the website. I can help with that once I clear out my current plate.

Daw, thanks for the mention, Jabier! That would be the inkdrop
animation I never got around to encorporating in the video.
It's here:

Sound effects to follow once I get time again (future).

I'm not sure this animation qualifies as a "mascot", but I think
Martin showed me inky after the fact... so maybe that's two
kinda/sorta votes for an inkdrop mascot? :)
I mean "freedom machine" is fun... but could represent any FOSS
software project (or any computer running Linux or OpenBSD). Inky is
kinda uniquely ours, imho. I'm sure variations would be welcome, and
I'd sure like to see what the community has to say about it (if I get
a vote) :)

Yes, could be.  But I think an official mascot, possibly together
with more
involved branding, should be sought from the entire community.  Many
awesome
artists out there!  Maybe a contest?

All best,

And "Freedom Machine" as a mascot could be a nice idea...

Dear developers,

The about screen contest for 0.92 is complete and we have our three
runner ups for us developers to choose from:

https://inkscape.org/en/gallery/=about-screen-contest/contest-for-0
92+0
/

Each of the three are marked as "Next Round", please email to the
mailing list with your choices. Simply put your numbers in order of
preference, so 3214 would mean 3 is my first choice, 2 is my second
choice etc. You don't have to rank all numbers if you don't want
to.

You'll notice that I've chosen 4 items, this is because 1 and 3 are
so
similar and I wanted to give us a better choice.

Thanks to all our artists and voters, I think this round has been
really good.

I actually voted for "Ngarai Sianok" and a lot of people loved
"Freedom
Machine" (see comments on those items). So I'll be adding a few of
these to the website front page when 0.92 is released, to replace
the
current set of images.

Best Regards, Martin Owens
