[Zope] zope graphics designers

Possibly off-topic suggestion follows ...

Hi all.

It has occurred to me that Digital Creations
maintains a list of Zope-friendly ISP's, but
no recommendations for Zope graphical design
services.  It's possible (though unlikely) 
that DC wants to stake out this area for
itself.  Assuming the opposite, how about 
providing a list of Zope-cognizant graphics 
designers?

Basically, participants would need to know
(or be willing to learn) the fundamentals
of DTML, but this should not present too much
of a barrier to entry.  In the competitive 
business of graphics design, a distinguishing 
niche might provide participating designers
with a useful advantage.  Companies who may
never otherwise have heard about a particular
design firm might discover their services via 
Zope.org.

It almost goes without saying (except I'm saying
it anyway) that "Zope Certified" or somesuch
designation advertised by graphics designers
provides a slight boost for Zope.  Sort of like 
what happens when an airline advertises about 
serving Starbucks coffee.  Starbucks gets an
unpaid endorsement implying the superiority of
their product.

Thoughts?

P.S. It also goes without saying that Zope-aware 
graphics designers are superior to those who aren't. ;)
