I like drops, clouds, and rainbows, but the rainbows might be too cutesy for some users. (One of the things I don't like about DeadJournal and InsaneJournal is how far they carry the themed naming -- to the point that I can't always recognize what's been renamed.)
Or we could stick with drops, not name any larger denomination, and let users eventually nickname bigger numbers of drops. If 100 drops is consistently called a puddle, for example, we could go back and talk about puddles in the documentation. I really like watching nicknames like that happen organically! LOVE calling it The Bucket. You could check to see how many drops are in your bucket. :D ~ Rachel On Fri, Jan 9, 2009 at 11:09 AM, Katherine Toomajian <[email protected]>wrote: > I am personally a rather big fan of the water scheme, maybe droplets, > drops and downpours, and where they are stored/donated is called The > Bucket.
