don't want to force myself into official inkscape logo author, so the contest could be a good idea too.
It is great to see people creating artwork using Inkscape but I think a mascot tends to be sickeningly cute and unnecessary. If anything I think it would be a distraction which would detracts from an otherwise proffessional image of Inkscape.

My own feelings about most of the Linux program mascots and a few of the logos are they are childish and immature. If we ever wish for Linux desktop to be popular then mascots like the penguin, lizards, mice, etc., simply "don't hack it". Such is my considered opinion.
