Not sure. I believe that having those around who know how to do stuff (the 
"regulars") might be even more important. So I think just checking with those

yes. Unfortunately I don't have graphics skills (you'll know that if you saw 
my one-time bugsquad livecd kdm theme :D). Maybe a contest with the winner 
getting a free t-shirt?
