    I’m not sure why every time I look at this project, it rubs me the wrong way. Anyone found anything wrong with it?

      I just hate the comic style that is used in presentations like this, it is just too cutsey, and I can’t take it seriously

          What does Ente mean?

          In Malayalam, Vishnu’s native language, “ente” means “mine”. Thus “Ente Photos” has the literal meaning “my photos”.

          This was a good name, but still Vishnu looked around for better ones. But one day, he discovered that “ente” means “duck” in German. This unexpected connection sealed the deal. We should ask him why he likes ducks so much, but apparently he does, so this dual meaning (“mine” / “duck”) led him to finalize the name, and also led to the adoption of “Ducky”, Ente’s mascot Source
