I love it...
I am waiting to see that on Guggenheim Museoa soon... ;)
Perhaps some glenda stickers too... I am sure there is enough artwork
to have some nice "merchandise"

I would like to see a plain white and otherwise unadorned T-shirt with
the upper-left corner of an Acme window on the front. I often describe
Plan9 (and its fuzzy little mascot) as having an "audi like"
aesthetic. While I admit that the painting is cute I prefer the
original in soft pencil on paper. For me painting Glenda in color
would be akin to hanging a huge carbon fiber wing on an S4, like
adding flashing LEDs to a Karim Rashid table lamp....
My wife and I were just admiring the other works by Renee French, we
decided that we would have to go ahead and buy up as much of her
published materials as possible once we return home from "The
Kingdom".

I second the Acme window t-shirt idea :-)
By the upper-left of an acme window, I assume you mean something like this:
http://cl.naist.jp/~eric-n/osx/acme-sac.tiff
I can't recall for certain, but I believe at some point Caerwyn may
have been using something similar as an icon for Acme SAC.
As an aside, the color selection and geometric layout of acme always
reminded me of the works of Piet Mondrian:
http://cl.naist.jp/~eric-n/osx/acme-stijl.png
I wonder if he was an influence of Rob's or Renee's.

Flickr will pass pictures to moo.com so anyone could order their own
pretty easily. Unless there's some permission things in place. I don't
know if you can prepare a set and let other people order it.

I appear to be temporarily using gmail's horrible interface. I
apologise for any failure in my part in trying to make it do the right
thing with post formatting.

Not directly. Gerard's designs for the cover of the last published
Plan 9 manual were more strongly influenced.
