We should not use the default logo/mascot and favicon. (It's been suggested in bug 221756 comment #0 as well.) There was a neat proposal on http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wikimedia_Forum/Archives/2008-09#Bugzilla_logo_change for example (needs still some touches though). ---- Or should we for the time being use old favicon (I can't find it online ATM, but have cached one, if necessary.) and old logo/mascot (<http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Bug.png>) ?
Bug 22175 of course... ;-)
Why shouldn't we use the bugzilla bug? It's free content, and it's way cuter than anything I've seen proposed.
Please come back and reopen this ticket as soon as there's consensus about the logo to install.

Couple reasons, for example: * Favicons exist to help to differ tabs and bookmarks. Imagine I have access to other bugzillas of other projects which did not set the logo. It is real PITA to find the correct tab (I usualy have 50+ opened) if you have more than one project's bugtracker opened. Not speaking about bookmarks. Imagine all Wikisources/Wiktionaries/Wikibookses... had [[<sunflower>]] same MediaWiki logo, just because it runs on free software thus it has "free content"... * And logo? It's all about marketing - having default logo says "we are lamers who can't even make ourn own logo" and "we don't care about our users, they are not worth to set something customized". By the way - we strongly encourage users of MediaWiki with text-overwritten default logo to load their own too... See? The same issue... I'm not saying anything about those logos & favicons, which one should be set - it's a question of poll probably. However, definitely there must be any other than the default. (In reply to comment #3) > Please come back and reopen this ticket as soon as there's consensus about the > logo to install. Well, I haven't seen any consensus to change it from previous orange/brownish bug as logo and some kind of black/grey fly on white as favicon. Just for the record... Since it is actually NOT resolved, I'm keeping it open, otherwise it will remain forgotten. Resolved/later status should be set, if previous logo and favicon were set back and the discussion on new would be held somewhere. This did not happen.
That one? http://www.thegeekstuff.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/10/bugzilla-logo-260x300.png That was the default logo of an older version. And with the upgrade of bugzilla, the new default logo has been installed. PS: Warning: the new version of ViewVC also comes with a new logo.
WONTFIXing this, never got consensus or a suggestion for a better logo and/or favicon combo and there is no point having it sit around in LATER for no reason all this time.
