Greta Goes Out This Weekend

What the hell is Greta I hear you cry!

Greta is our new, for lack of a better word, Geek Actually mascot. She is a geek dream of beauty. I am going to release a bunch of wallpapers for your computers so you don’t forget to listen to Geek, Actually. For the girls out there, I hope you enjoy Greta too. We might come up with a male geek god at sometime but for the moment Greta will do.

Greta is a poser creation and is using lots of props and clothes made by some very talented people, when she launches, I will list a few of these creative souls.

I give to you a sneak peak at the first wallpaper, this is just a portion of the whole picture. Let me know what you think.

Note: I am looking for a better term than Mascot. I don’t think it is a very PC phrase to use when depicting a female If you can give me a better phrase I would be very happy.

I think mascot is the right term for Greta.

wikipedia states, 'The term mascot – defined as a term for any person, animal, or object thought to bring luck – colloquially includes anything used to represent a group with a common public identity..." (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mascot). It also refers to Ronald mcDonlad as a 'mascot'.

I don't think you should worry about politically correct terminolgy. I'm a female and referring to Greta as a mascot doesn't offend me at all.

Cheers
