No, not, yet but maybe I'll borrow a Quicktake Camera and post it! 
Basically it's a rectangle, made from redwood, 4 square feet by 7 square feet (all I could fit into the space allowed), 3 feet tall, with finials on each corner post. 

Just harvested the jalapeños from summer, about 35 on one plant, plenty for two of us. I think I'll freeze some for salsa and pickle the rest.

Planted 5 squares today, onions, leeks, mixed greens, broccoli and spinach. Also planted next to the bed, on a trellis shaped into a triangle, some snow peas. After I plant new squares I enter the varieties on my Mac, on a form I created with squares to match my raised bed. I then print it out and put it in the kitchen, where can I refer to it. I thought about laminating it and putting it near the raised bed but the kitchen works fine. I like this better than having lots of little markers in the garden, but it's a matter of preference.
