Me too; lots of opportunity for droll comment, although it would be more effective if the name were applied after the community had experience with it - I can imagine Kestrel, Redtail, Condor for the better ones; Dodo, Pigeon, Albatross, Booby for ugly, poorly-performing, or overly-large ones; Sparrow, Finch, Wren for lightweight ones... what would be the characteristics of one named Crow, or Turkey?... without venturing into the mythical, such as the Thunderbird, or the Piasa Bird (a local phenomenon, from a primitive painting on the cliffs on the eastern shore of the Mississippi, attributed to the Piasa tribe, which looks rather like a griffin) or my favorite, Thunder Chicken... That opens one possibility that should be carefully reserved for one especially lovable version: the tuxedo-clad, flightless arctic variety... brain[sic]

I think it's a good idea too.

My suggestion for the skin code name is "dove".
Nice one... I hope we don't remove the doves in the
future though
... ;-)
Or we could make it more cryptic like Dovia (IntelliJ IDEA have code names like this: Selena, Demtra, Ariadna, etc) ;-)
Any other suggestion?
I think I prefer the plain Dove idea over the cryptic version. Maybe name skins after birds in general (and change the picture to use shadows of the appropriate bird)? Emu, kiwi, grasswren, condor, warbler, etc
That's a good idea, I like it.
Thanks -Vincent
