    When we moved to Xenfora some of the signature options didn't come over. In the old software signatures were limited by a character limit, on Xenfora there are more options and there is a character number and number of lines limit. I've set maximum number of lines to 4 and unlimited characters.

Does the JREF defend any trademark rights on the "Pigasus" flying pig symbol?

I'm asking because my morning newspapaper today (The Philadelphia Inquirer) is dotted with teaser ads featuring a winged pig logo, rendered as a white on black silhouette. The copy of one reads "Who let the pigs out? Find out on November 9th" Another: "On November 9th, the sky will squeal."

I have no idea what these ads are for, and Web searches on the various slogans have proven unenlightening. I doubt they have anything to do with JREF -- and hence, my curiosity about trademark issues.

Respectfully,
Myriad
 
I doubt it, the flying pig as a metaphor and a symbol have been around long before the JREF.
