Here is a possible solution:

Create an online depository for all the LTC or LUG logos used in the • making
of containers.  Then include with each logo a dat file or some other means
of describingthe specifications of the containter.  eg. color scheme, • size,
etc.  This way each LTC or LUG can print out the Logo when they feel like • it
and create the corresponding container according to the specifications • provided.

If groups still would like to trade physical containers then they could
arrange this with the respective LTCs or LUGs.

I have posted the instructions for the NCLTC container on our web site:

http://www.ncltc.cc/container/index.htm

I need to do a bit of work on the .dat for the sticker but you can get the
general idea.  The sand red bricks didn't render as well as I hoped they
would either.

It took me about five minutes to build the container model with ML-CAD and
about five minutes to render the images with L-Pub.  I rendered them with
print quality but only 480 pixels wide.
