Oooh can we make the handle an elephant trunk? (Ok, now I'm sure I'm adding all sorts of expense - but hey you'll save so much money using Postgres you can afford an expensive coffee mug!)

Can you picture a bunch of these on a meeting table? If that image
does not scream "Stampede!", I don't know what does. =)

Again, a great conversation starter.

I think I like this idea best so far!

Some supporting documentation for a final version:

I agree, that's a good idea. Instead of the original PG logo near the top, the mug can show a real elephant face along with the foots on both sides. And then have "PostgreSQL" somewhere written - maybe turned 90° near the handle, on both sides?

How does this sound? And next question: who can design this? ;-)
