        Chris, Maybe a stupid idea, but how about 'we' (the cp-members) create a little contest where everyone can submit a name for this friendly fellow? -- Alex Marbus www.marbus.net But then again, I could be wrong.

          Maybe not. I mean - it does look like something with very low self esteem. Resembles Calimero. How'bout: Kira.

            You definitely need more sleep, Chris! Bob, as we all remember, is the name of a serial killer from the tv-series "Twin Peaks" played by, now deceased, Franka Silva. Not really an appropiate name for the CP mascot, if I must say so. I would suggest the name "Pointer", because of his pointy little head :-) Christian Skovdal Andersen

              'Bob'... damn that's catchy... maybe toooo catchy... Hmmmm... somehow I think the little dotnik is expecting more of us, though. Ahh, who am I kidding. Truth is, I was just _hoping_ this might turn into a chance at a T-shirt. But who's gonna outdo 'Bob'? And besides, I think Chris has already blown this years T-shirt budget on that last six... ;P

                  Wouldn't it be better if we could first decide if we like the alien or not? And if not, suggest a new logo? Unless, of course, E.T. is here to stay.

                      I think you do need some more sleep.. BOB was just a stupid idea of Microsoft, in a galaxy a long, long time ago. I think if we name it Bob, it's future is already written :( We could just call it Alex, ofcourse :rolleyes: -- Alex Marbus www.marbus.net But then again, I could be wrong.

                        Well, when you say "Bob" I think of a, long gone, userinterface from MS - Anders Money talks, but all mine ever says is "Goodbye!"
