- apl 16y agoDisturbing yet wonderful logo...
- mikelbring7 16y agoI think it should be the other way around. Elephant with an android hat, since the inners are PHP but the outside is android.
- nands 16y agoThis is their logo ver2. The ver1 was way simple ! http://www.phpforandroid.net/artwork http://www.phpforandroid.net/artwork
- zalew 16y agowhen I see an elephant I think Postgresql
- rll 16y agoAh, but it is not an elephant, it is an éléPHPant. :) It was never intended to be a PHP logo, but there is this crazy talented designer in France named Vincent Pontier who thought the letters PHP looked like an elephant. Watch the short video here on the birth of the éléPHPant: http://www.elroubio.net/naissance_elephpant.php http://www.elroubio.net/naissance_elephpant.php He also has a series of PHP pinups: http://www.elroubio.net/php-images/index.htm http://www.elroubio.net/php-images/index.htm

- Gazk 16y agoand of course Leatherface from the Texas Chainsaw Massacre who wore the skin masks of his victims to help take on their personality.
- nirajr 16y agoAn elephant mask on an robot/alien? Whatever happened to humans..
- sigzero 16y agoYikes...property values are going down. PHP has moved in.
- PhrosTT 16y agowhy?
- dpcan 16y agoNot sure why you were voted down here. I have the same question. And I looked around their website and couldn't find anything. There isn't even a statement of who or how one would benefit from something like this. Their homepage badly needs a mission statement, or a "Welcome, PHP for Android is for those who...... something" That being said, I think I may understand a little as to the "why" by looking at the scripts that are on the site. It appears that this is for people who just like coding in PHP and would like to use that language when coding for Android..... I think. It's about the language. I am probably going to test it out. I'm wondering if the apps written using this exist entirely inside an embedded browser. That might be interesting.
- ax0n 16y agoWhen someone asks "why?" to something, I almost always think "Why not?" Is there a good reason you shouldn't play with Ruby, Scala or Python on Android? If so, why not PHP?
- SabrinaDent 16y agoPHP pinups of elephants on scantily clad women is not a great way to promote this. Really do not want.
- rll 16y agoThe pinups have nothing to do with the PHP Android project. I was just explaining where the elephant came from. Vincent happens to also like drawing scantily clad women, but the PHP Android project is just using the elephant.
- castis 16y agoI'll start this off disclaiming that I've used PHP for a long time now and I like it. However, I don't understand why PHP should be beaten into a form it was never meant to be in. I do like the logo though.
