How about this one?
Not quite, but that’s kinda cool. I might use it if it wasn’t somebody’s logo. I’m not so sure I want to walk around with an advertisement on my arm. I think if I just draw it up the way I like it, they’ll understand. (not than I’m an artist, but if I just draw it the same way I write it when I’m taking notes in class)
To me, the alleged pi that bibliophage posted looks like a “P” with a funny serif at its upper left corner.
Looks a bit like a spoof of the Intel Inside [inwardly hears bong-bing-bung-bing, makes mental note to get de-memed] logo.
Pi inside.
It is to laugh.
Does anyone have LaTeX on their computer with the AMS-math package? If so, I think that variable style pi might be close.
Use the command \varpi if anyone has the resources…
Oops… varpi looks like a scrotum stuck in a zipper.
No, that can’t be true. I do see a small greek letter pi there. It’s your own computer that is doing the conversion, or your site defaults somehow. If the board software did the conversion, I wouldn’t be able to see it.
Joey P,
I wasn’t intentionally trying to suggest using the logo as is, but to take the circular part off, leaving the pi symbol. It just had a top that was similar to what you described.
Interesting. When I viewed this page at home, I got pi as normal. Here at work (using solaris and netscape rather than Win98 and IE, although what exactly the problem is, I’m not sure and don’t really care), I get the p. But then, I seem to remember having problems with the symbol font on this board before at work.
OK, so I have to ask the OP… The post I read prior to his/hers asks about the pi symbol suddenly appearing as a graffito in Seattle. This posting person wants a tattoo of one. Wassup? What’s the significance?
There’s also a greek “variant pi” that looks like an omega with a squiggly line over it.
