| I have been so impressed with Gentoo that I have decided to run it as my production web application server. I am sure many users have done this as well. Because of this, we definitely need some sweet little decals to stick on our boxes that say "Powered By Gentoo Linux" |

I'm using the ones from the website (here) and just printed them onto Floppy Disk labels. Not the cleanest thing ever, but my servers do say Powered by Gentoo!  |

| How many people would be interested in purchasing snazzy domed "Powered By Gentoo Linux" case decals? And How much would you be willing to pay? |

| I would be willing to buy it if it was included in an official "Gentoo Afficionado Kit" for under US$50. |

I would be willing to pay 5 bucks US, other stickers at newegg cost about 5 bucks, so I figure it shouldn't be too much more than that, but the printing your own stickers idea is pretty neat!
As for the official "Gentoo Afficionado Kit", granted that Gentoo rocks, it isn't like those other distros, charging insane rates in stores for the CD, but hey, I am willing to support Gentoo, check out the T-shirts: https://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic.php?t=1052&highlight=

Here's the deal. I recently bought some "Powered By Linux" stickers for my boxes from some guy here in Texas. They look really sharp. I was so impressed with them that I wanted to see if he would do a custom sticker using the "Powered By Gentoo" graphic from the main Gentoo site. He is sending me a sample sticker. If it looks as good as the other ones that I got, I would definitely recommend getting one of these snazzy stickers. I will post what I think about the sticker as well as a picture of it once I get it.
I am also trying to set up some sort of deal benefitting the Gentoo Development organization... as in selling the stickers with all proceeds going to these hard working guys. I still haven't heard back from anyone from Gentoo as to coordinating this with me. I will keep trying though... I want to support these guys... I want my new favorite distro to live forever. |

I just got the Gentoo sample decal today. It looks great! The image is so sharp. I tried taking picture but I decided against posting it since it didn't do the decal any justice. I definitely want these to be on all Gentoo users' cases.
I sent another email to the Gentoo guys in hopes of setting this up. Hopefully these can become available to everyone.
