Whatever. I just wanted to make the point that artwork does not appear out of blue sky. And good ideas for artwork are very hard to come by. One needs good ideas, and then a good artist to do the work. Neither of which I see at the moment?? Wilko NB: my all-time favorite is the 2.1-cover that never made it. The one with "A giant step for PCs" and the Apollo moonlander, the sneaker footprint and the shadow of beastie. I only have a hardcopy, if anyone still has the file I'd sure like a copy. -- | / o / / _ Arnhem, The Netherlands email: wilko@freebsd.org |/|/ / / /( (_) Bulte http://www.freebsd.org http://www.nlfug.nl To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-hackers" in the body of the message
