More FreeBSD paraphernalia! The daemon I have was scanned from
the reverse side of a wipe-off tattoo, then flipped around, so the
colours are rather blotchy. I diddled around with it in Photoshop,
then reduced it so you can't really tell. Mr. Hosokawa ought to have
a large rendition of the daemon in mid-stride from his CD-ROM cover
artwork. If I can get a copy of that from him, I could easily create
a big version of the logo, suitable for output on a colour printer for
a variety of uses around home and office. :)
I thought the idea of Walnut Creek giving away FreeBSD T-shirts
and wipe-off tattoos at the Toronto Comdex was a fabulous idea. I
never would have bothered with the 2.0.5 CD-ROMs if there wasn't a
free T-shirt in the deal. ;-) It left the Linux people standing at
the booth wondering if there was something for them ("Well, have you
guys come up with a mascot yet?"). :)
Apple gives away Apple logo stickers of all sizes (or at least
they used to with the Apple II's) and SGI bundles cool foam rubber
balls with their Indys. A handful of FreeBSD daemon stickers stuck in
with the CD-ROM insert booklet would be great to have. People will
want to stick them on binders, windows, sides of monitors, desks, etc.
I used to agonize over where best to affix those Apple stickers... :)
