Some background

For the story, I wandered in asunflowerfield in spring/summer 2003, and took many pictures. You may see a consequence of that day in the sunflower splashscreen I made after that triphere. Soon after, Eloquence launched the wikipedia logo contest, and had an idea of a logo himself... but no flower to use for it. He asked me for one... and here is the flower I sent him. The logo had success during the contest, but did not make the final winner for wikipedia... still, it became our software Mediawiki logo (http://wikipedia.sourceforge.net/). Anyone may see this little flower on all wikis using our Mediawiki soft.

Sometimes during summer 2004, I felt the need of avery smallpicture which could be used to paste, just to saythank youto editors. Not a big barnstar to display, but just a tiny little thing one can distribute as much as desired.

It was first used on meta, to thankRaul654.Then it spread on several of our projects and there is even an editor using it in his signature.

I am delighted that people use it. It gives a splash of sunny happiness on a talk page;-)
