No prob. I'd be grateful if you would attribute me where appropriate, 
but I'd be more than happy to see the stuff re-worked/re-used.

I do, I also have an animated banner, micro button and logos as used on 
the T-shirts. Oh, and a poster I used a few years ago :-)

Do you want be to mail them to you?

Lol, we dumped that domain name in favor to using the hosting at 
lug.org.uk about 4 years ago! I wouldn't worry too much about the old 
older server, it's not going to be brought back online in it's old

redirect/ basic information up at lancaster.lug.org.uk
