I have just submitted a collection of Diagram Palettes to the archive sites.   
These palettes are full of useful and/or fun postscript images that give new  
life to Diagram.  For instance, the collection of gradations provides a way to  
do gradations while we wait for Lighthouse Design to release a new version of  
Diagram that does this properly...

Here is a list of the palettes included:

Backgrounds - Cool things to throw behind any diagram!
BkgndsRandom - never the same twice!
ColorGradations - overcome one of the limitations of Diagram!
Components - electrical symbols
Gears - a few "teethed-things"
Gradations - (gray scale) overcome one of the limitations of Diagram!  
LogicGates - Logic symbols
Math - a rather kludgy way to do equation editing (mostly various symbols from  
the Symbol font)
PCBLayout - cheap and dirty printed circuit board layout
PSTidBits - little bits and tids
Stars - "It's full of stars!"
Tiles - non-ceramic (interesting as borders)
Triangles - right triangles, since Lighthouse left these off their default  
palette
3-DShapes - Add a new dimension to your diagrams...

I submitted these to the submissions directory at sonata.cc.purdue.edu and  
cs.orst.edu.  The filename is UW_Palettes.tar.Z.  They were also submitted for  
inclusion on the educational CDROM NeXT is putting together.  Enjoy.
