This is something I've been thinking about (since "flesh-toned" was
mentioned - which flesh tone would that be?). Not having a solution, I kept
quiet, but Clytie's mention of a Tux with a coolie hat to represent VietLUG
sparked an idea.
What about a Tux that's obviously female? (i.e., a Tux with breasts?)
I do really love the image of the woman in the robotic Tux, but there are
certainly problems with having a person. The woman does look awfully
European in genetic origin, even in monochrome, and I think it's in our best
interests to avoid any kind of exclusive imagery or imagery that suggests
that a Linuxchix looks a certain way. Maybe we could still use it somewhere
else on the webpage, maybe for the courses webpage or HOWTOs?
Thoughts?
