Using the EPS files at <URL:http://www.spinnaker.de/debian/logo/>, I
created a PNG file using `convert' from Imagemagick, and imported it
into GIMP. I had to fiddle with the resolution (-density) a bit to
make it the size I needed, but the eventual result is my new Debian
link button at:
http://home.clear.net.nz/pages/c.evans/pic/debian-now-2.1-s.xcf
This isn't the final version; I need to fiddle with the fonts a bit,
and wait for the result of the vote on the logo. I think the current
version looks better than my previous one with a miniature Tux,
though.

There's a vote in progress:
http://www.debian.org/vote/1999/vote_0005
I don't want to have to use the vase, myself - there's no way I can
fit it on a link button.
