My mistake. I totally forgot about that when I made the rendering. I chose
the shiled color as gray, because all shields are gray, I forgot it was
hard-coded.
And I gotta get rid of the Red Futuron's yellow hands too ;-)

If Dan (Crichton), the Download editor, wants to go ahead and make
placeholders for these, I have no objection.
I won't spend much of my own site time maintaining it though, unless there's
a sudden surge of users from that OS. There are many other things to do for
current users on more popular operating systems, I'd rather enrich their
experience than make sure everyone is covered, regardless of the
distribution of users between OSes.
