I like the idea about coloring tim-barrels.

At the moment the secondary structures can be selected in PyMOL using 
selector "ss". I wonder whether it makes sense to label each strand with 
an index so we can select each strand individually, e.g.

select ss s5 # select the 5th strand from the N-term

and then one can flip the colors of the two "sides" of the strand in 
case it is not colored properly according to the user.
