    Hi there!

    Your The Events Calendar is excellent plugin for events and calendars, but my question is related to your Logo … I was wondering why you use “the sign of the horns” hand gesture that in some cultures is offensive or represents satan?

    Would really like to know how the hand gesture is related to calendar and events?
    Regards, D.

    Hi @dmarin

    The “sign of the horns” hand gesture means many things to many cultures. We at The Events Calendar chose this particular iconography as in popular culture, this sign represents “rock on” or having fun, and is often used as a sign of appreciation at many events, like concerts or sporting events, or even weddings.

    We feel that this icon represents that spirit of fun and elation people can experience at such gatherings or events, which is the mission that our software hopes to support.

    I hope this clears up any confusion you may have!

    If you have any further questions let us know.

    Cheers,
