It's seems to be *agreed* that the images used for the "Native" and "Works With" labels should be of the highest *caliber*; well I feel sure that MANY excellent designs could be got for free from art department and their students. If we were to have a competition(?) with the winner getting to have their winning image pasted left right and centre about the WWW, on packaging and so on. The winner would also get to put the design and so forth in their portfolio (not to mention the warm fuzzy glow it would give them?). What do the rest here think? Short of paying a proffessional (or being lucky enough to find a FreeBSD using graphic artist) this seems like a real possibility. We could give a (5 week?) short submission time and see what happens ...... basically, what is their to lose? ........... just my few pence here.
