Re: the dragon has to go!

What I don't like about the dragon is that it simply looks so... Well it is so angular and odd. It does not fit in KDE 3.x and I think it won't fit in KDE 4 even more.

Wouldn't it be better to redesign the poor old fellow? I mean look at those BSD devil guys. If I recall they have changed their mascot a bit, eh?

(google.... click click) :)

Check out what they came up with: http://logo-contest.freebsd.org/result/

and the old one was: http://logo-contest.freebsd.org/ (you can see it somewhere in the page).

So what I'm trying to say is that Konqui is a bit old fashioned and NEEDS polishing.

Regards,
Bartek

G'day,

Just a quickie from me. Look, I'm new to this Linux stuff, I think it looks great and workable. It appears stable. I just use it for the net and some other stuff and I like the corporate feel to the Simply-Mepis that I am using. But for this fool of a dragon that shows up at the end.

I JUST WANT TO P--- IT OFF!

For the love of bananas, cripes, I mean, come on! Fair dinkum!

It looks daggy and takes away from the rest of the system and it gets quite annoying to look at it.

Now ...

Can-someone-just-write-a-response-to-tell-how-to-get-rid-of-it!

I'm no geek (whatever that is), I don't particularly want to be, I just want to use the thing. And we need a 'Linux for Complete Idiots' like myself.

Looking forward to some help.

Be good.

Bye for now.
