Why you don't made a "Certificate of Computation" like the Seti@home project?

Strictly speaking, lack of time. But it's a good idea, and it's on my list for the new year. I'm afraid that the pressure of keeping the project running and keeping up with the data makes me like the proverbial duck. Calm and graceful on the surface, frantic paddling underneath!

I was a bit disappointed when

I was a bit disappointed when the SETI project made their certificates that they did not make a 'BOINC standard' template for it. That way all the projects would have one with minimal effort.

The reason for this is because "SETI" did not make the certificates. When BOINC came to being, they asked for help on creating new certificates for the new version, and the ones on their site are the ones that were voted on. So in essence it was 3rd parties that created them.

(Hinting to the project people here that someone may want to help. Not me, cause I have no design talent what-so-ever, but there are MANY, MANY talented people out there.)
