them to take pretty pictures.
The News Office has a bunch of stock photos of campus (ie: Lobby 7,
Killian, etc) available for no charge if it's MIT use. It might be worth
talking to them and seeing what's available.
Also, when we next revisit the greeter, we should replace the text at the
bottom with something that doesn't say "Athena 10". Probably just the two
icons and text in the center that says "Information Services & Technology"
and "Student Information Processing Board" or something. (This probably
still wants to be an image, as it is now, because gdm's relative
positioning code is pretty terrible for anything other than dead center.)
