Terri,
I am always ignored, so here goes my 2 cents. No offense intended; as I
cannot do better on the artwork front.

Having now seen the t-shirt "in the flesh" on Peter Karlsson, I am even
more convinced that the designer of it must have been on acid.
The peacock feathers, curlicue leaf forms, Saturnian rings and
Dali-esque dripping fluid just create a mishmash of styles that do not
gel together, and certainly do not complement the OpenSolaris logo in
the slightest. I would have voted for a cleaner, simpler, punchier
design of the artwork accompanying the logo; rather than overt flowery
complexity. Please make this design a "limited run".
Regards... Sean.
