- amelius 7y agoWhat is happening here is that the girl is drawn in a confusing way: with childlike and also with adult traits. Also, the big eyes form a supernormal stimulus [1]. As such it is "hacking" into the brain of the viewer. Some people are more sensitive to this than others. In any case it distracts from the actual subject (the console software). As for work, I wouldn't consider it appropriate. [1] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Supernormal_stimulus https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Supernormal_stimulus
- numlock86 7y ago> In any case it distracts from the actual subject Sounds like this fits with any kind of shape, color or combination of those (read as: logo) in any README.md that has one ... I wouldn't interpret too much into it.
- saagarjha 7y ago> Also, the big eyes form a supernormal stimulus [1]. As such it is "hacking" into the brain of the viewer. Oh, come on, that’s just the typical anime/manga style. You criticism applies equally to any software which has an attractive person as its icon as that would supernormally “hack” your brain as well. I see nothing about that drawing that is confusing.
- stevefan1999 7y agoThis is just anime. Well it seems like you just don't understand us asians.
- airstrike 7y agoIt's just silly, irrelevant, distracting and adolescent IMHO
- matz1 7y agoSure, its not for everyone. To each their own.
