All fine examples of what we want people to think of when they use
Fedora.. I especially like the satanist suggestion, I have a feeling
that might make us popular with the LiveJournal and MySpace crowd.

Why not go all out and just get permission to distribute an image of
Alice Cooper biting the head off a defenseless kitten or something with
ominous bible quotes.

Artwork should be culturally neutral, remember what happened when Ubuntu
did the semi-naked people image?
