Hello everyone! Have you heard of Foxkeh? Foxkeh was born to boost the promotion of Firefox in Japan and has become quite popular on the Web.
Last September Foxkeh was born and we collected ideas for his name from over 7,000 community members. He was named Foxkeh after FIREFOX and SUKE, the suffix of common boy's name in Japan (e.g. Daisuke Matsuzaka.) Since then, he has appeared in the VOX Banner Contest, a time chart document, an nonfiction novel on the history of Firefox, monthly wallpapers, a series of promotional videos, and much more.
In response to public demand, we have decided to localize this Japanese content into English. The time chart of Firefox history and Foxkeh's Wallpapers are available today. English-dubbed version of our video series will be broadcast here. Be sure to check it out!

It would be awesome to have this in other languages such as spanish. We, at Difunde Firefox, would be more than happy to do this if you wish to.

What a fun and cheerful character.

Hi,
I was wondering if you could provide us with the vector original pics, if there is any?
These would be easier to use than the bitmaps you provide.

derStandard.at is using http://www.foxkeh.com/downloads/materials/200704.png under http://derstandard.at/?id=2860055 with the wrong copyright-notice "Grafik: Archiv" and therefore violates the "Attribution-NonCommercial 2.1" license.
this shouldn't be accepted because it is under the top ten most frequent domains of austria (details under http://www.oewa.at/index.php?id=4087) with many advertisments.
because there web-section is normally caroing about OSS I recommend writing an email to online.webstandard@derStandard.at subj:feedback:Newsroom/Webstandard/Innovationen /Browser/id=2860055

It would be so ace to have little Foxkeh smileys that you can use with TB's smiley extension!!!! Shame I'm not very good with doing pc art or I'd make them myself...

Is there any chance that there will be an English subtitled version as well as the dubbed English video?
