    I know it is a low priority, but I believe a graphic or screensaver - even a simple one like Protein@home - would help encourage membership.

      I have created a screen saver for RCN (not yet implemented), and I would also like to create one for ABC, as it is my main project now. Any ideas how to graphically represent a workunit?

        I agree 100 % A graphic would boost members big time.

          As we are going to find abc triples I always imagine lots of little letters a, b and c floating into the 'maths universe' and suddenly they 'find' themselves stuck together each on a point of a triangle. *grin*
          Not very near to the "real" science but quite simple and figurative.

          Or something like this (it's also a bit of a triangle). :-)

          Lovely greetings from Cori

            I like the sailboat in the second example, Cori. It's a good example to use.
