As far as I remember > they looked quite cool. Thank you Alaksiej; I do appreciate the reply :) I don't think there's enough time to design a logo/label of my own. Anton's work is "FreeBSD"-specific, and I would have to find a vector version of the PC-BSD logo, the FreeBSD logo font (that may be tricky), and then try to design something nice looking. I'm not really good with graphic arts, so I guess I'll have to find another way to get pretty labels.

With two events coming up during the next 1-2 weeks, we are bound to have quite a bit of fun. I'm definitely going to need a bit of luck.
