Bug #41662 for SQL-Translator: sqlfairy logo

Fri Dec 12 13:43:45 2008 RADEK [...] cpan.org - Ticket created

Subject:

sqlfairy logo

The logo on http://sqlfairy.sf.net/ is obnoxious. I consider this a critical bug, as it prevents me from contributing to this project. If this was the intent -- well, congratulations.

I'm sorry to hear that you dislike the logo. The intent was to be comical, not obnoxious. It's a play on "ferry" vs "fairy" where the ferry "captain" is also a "fairy" (literal and figurative). If others in the project feel it's time to make the captain walk the plank, I'm not one to stand in the way. I've always liked the logo. I think it's helped attract good attention and developers to the project. ky (the original author and all-around insensitive clod who conceived the logo)

Sorry you feel that way. Open another one when you have a constructive contribution, for eg a replacement.
