<p>Well, if you haven&#39;t noticed each article on the main site has a rating system.&nbsp; It used to be stars but we changed it to &ldquo;fish&rdquo; to customize the site.&nbsp; Anyway, when you scroll your cursor over each star we can name a &ldquo;one fish&rdquo; post, a &ldquo;two fish&rdquo; post on so on.&nbsp; put your cursor over a fish and right now you&#39;ll see it just says shoalie monster but most people dont know what a shoalie is so I wanted to change it to something we all can identify with.</p>

<div id="post-ratings-934-loading" class="post-ratings-loading"><img class="post-ratings-image" title="Loading ..." src="/site/forum/general-discussion/wp-content/plugins/wp-postratings/images/loading.gif" alt="Loading ..." width="16" height="16" />&nbsp;Loading &hellip;</div>
<br />
<p>So, what should a &ldquo;one fish&rdquo; article be, a &ldquo;two fish,&rdquo; &ldquo;three fish&rdquo; &ldquo;four fish&rdquo; and &ldquo;five fish.&rdquo;&nbsp; Five fish is the highest rating an article can have. I was thinking something like.</p>
<br />
<p>1 fish could be &ldquo;peter panfish&rdquo;</p>
<p>2 fish could be &ldquo;dinkville&rdquo;</p>
<p>3 fish could be &ldquo;a keeper&rdquo;</p>
<p>4 fish could be &ldquo;pigbeast&rdquo;</p>
<p>5 fish could be &ldquo;hawgzilla&rdquo;</p>
<br />
<p>Anyone else have any cool ideas to toss around?&nbsp; This is your site, so let&#39;s hear it!</p>

<p>I dunno, Drew... I can come up with 1 and 5 and let you pick &#39;em in between.</p>
<p>#1 would be "Baitcutter."</p>
<p>#5 has to be "Fly Fisherman," since we all know what does and doesn&#39;t take talent! <img title="Laugh" src="/site/wp-content/forum-smileys/sf-laugh.gif" alt="Laugh" /><img title="Laugh" src="/site/wp-content/forum-smileys/sf-laugh.gif" alt="Laugh" /></p>
