This is really not the list for this kind of discussion. Please reply off
list if at all. (Also, your methodology is not useful for coming up with a
usable theme, it will just come up with a dog's breakfast of things people
like. You need one person to come up with and hone a design, and a bunch of
people to critique it.)

Please reply to the previous mail off-list if at all.
