I have uploaded some pictures of the P-A-B setup to brickshelf. I
included pictures of all of the bins in case my color listings were
unclear.

Also, I have some rather informal information on how much a large cup
can hold. The grand total for the 2 large cups that I bought was: 101
1x2 bricks, 226 1x4 bricks, 55 2x4 bricks, 4 2x4 plates, 21 3x3 corner
slopes, and 29 1x4x2 classic fence pieces. That works out to roughly
6 cents a piece before tax.
