Yes, I've been slack and didn't draw anything up, but I'm vetoing the boot favicon.   Boot gravely offends me :)

Just a letter C or generic free gear icon or something would be better as a temporary measure.   Almost anything.

And pie.


So since this hasn't gotten anywhere I do propose that we at least utilize the boot favicon until someone gets this figured out?  I'm all for a fancy new logo, but the whole reason I started down the path in the first place was because I was tired of not having a favicon when I pinned cobbler as an app tab. It doesn't have the medallion look to it or the tongue-in-cheek caption, its just a fairly quality looking leather boot (not modern per se, but not a simple work boot either). 

Note, I'm not suggesting this as the official cobbler logo, just a stand in favicon until the logo creation occurs.  Which considering the interest that was put into it both the first and second time it was brought up in the last 12m I don't necessarily see being fast tracked any time soon. (just being realistic... most of us are admins/developers not artists)

just a thought/suggestion.
