Some more thoughts:
- birds are associated with "brainless" in some cultures. Parrots are
worse as they add "ornemental" (and mean) to the mix
- most of the proposals are overly complex or reliant on colours. The
mascot must scale gracefully to low-resolution media or those where each
used colour costs (CDs, T-shirts). That's why successful mascots like Tux
or the Java guy are designed to degrade gracefully in monochrome low-res
outline mode
