I'm working on the scoring system. Any advice on the different
"grades" names and respective scores? Something along the lines of:

0%     Illiterate -- "You're pov? Are you folks unemployed?"
0-39%  Newbee     -- "Where'd my sphere go?"
40-49% Artist     -- "Here's another vase image" 
  (ok, ok, maybe not that personal :) I'll think of something else)
50-59% Experienced-- "Only 255 entries in pigment_map?!"
60-69% Advanced   -- "What do you think of my macro?"
70-79% Nerd       -- "Hey, if you remove this line media gets smooth!"
80-89% Guru       -- "I just put all patches into one, interested?"
90-99% Nutcake    -- ... (no real example, help anyone?)
100%   A Raytracing God -- "Let there be light_source!"

I am beginning to collect all entries in this list in a file. Please
come up with any suggestions for question. I will collect entries
until the 15th of November and then post the list here. Please people,
help make this test as good as it can be!
