Great ideas. #7 is too busy for my taste. I love the sailboat theme. I like #9 because it is more sleek and lifelike. #8 has the ascending bar graph- nice touch. But I like #9 better. It has a more comfortable feel to me. #11 is very cool too. Can we refine that a bit. Maybe a more "realistic" looking wave. Perhaps a cliff leading to a beach type scene. There is a lot of that in my area. Check out
