Lobster - I quite like your violently violet Puppy :D post him here too?

Q- Shouldn't we stick close to Barry's Chihuahua for Puppy itself? Just asking 'cause I don't know the whole story...

I can barely spell Chihuahua let alone draw him :) . . . but yes that little dog is the preferred logo model now (not so much when I created this)
- I used creative commons clip art and the trace routine in inkscape - it is not brill but I does my best :?

The violent grafpup icon is made up of the letters P (the eyes) u (the mouth) and y the body (the tail was an add on). I would have posted to the grafpup forum but I am boycotting it until the colour scheme is readable on my monitor (sorry Nathan but that is the way it is)

I would post a link but am too daft to work out how to do that at this moment . . . :roll:

oh here it is . . .

i had made a concept for a puppy logo some time ago. I like the idea but it needs to be redone by someone with talent..
