What colour is Mozilla supposed to be? In most images, e.g. all of them at
http://home.snafu.de/tilman/mozilla/bigmoz.html, he is green. But in the default
icons I get in Windows, on the desktop and the task bar, he is a dull red colour
(and wearing a yellow T-shirt), and a rather brighter red in the URL bar. This
shows some confusion in the image the project is trying to present. Obviously
there is no strong marketing department! I think I prefer the green Mozilla; if
red, at least make him bright red so he stands out on the taskbar.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:




I'll class this as trivial as I am basically an ex-programmer having a bit of
late night fun. But this kind of thing would be treated rather seriously by
marketing people, and probably also by whoever first created the original green
Mozilla.

The green lizard is from Netscape and the red one is from Mozilla

-> invalid

So what about the green Mozilla I see in the middle of the bottom right window
whenever I open Mailnews? Is it a bug, or just a green lizard?
