Spin description

The Basic Desktop Spin is a small fast download which is useful when you need something quick and simple that does not require a full modern desktop. It includes a number of simple window-managers including Awesome, Blackbox, Ratpoison, and XMonad. It is designed for minimal power users and OS testing.

Custom branding

Something simple - it could include an X logo perhaps.
