If it makes any difference, the otter is used on the cover of several
O'Reilly books (Java Net Prog, Perl for Sys Admin, Web Design in a
Nutshell). Not that I have anything against Otters, mind you. The
picture in Web Design in a Nutshell looks pretty neat. With a little
fiddling to make it more simplistic/stylized, it'd render as a small
image fairly well. Or perhaps the profile of Perl for Sys Admin would be
better?
