Comment Re:Currency (Score 1) 171

Fiats are so hard to attach a value; their use as currency would never work. "I'll give you 50 Fiats for that house; and one Fiat to the real estate agent for commission"?? When the agent already has a luxury car, the Fiat would be unused.
Although each individual Fiat is (trans)portable, porting a number of them around for purchases would require logistical managerial skills most people don't have.

You would have to ensure the script maintains the "golden ratio" for the displayed art or you lose the visual impact of rightness provided by the screenshot. The script would need a lookup table for variable fonts to ensure proper ratios to keep that golden ratio. Oh, now this is no longer a script but now a small app with a database; sounds like an open source project. Need to setup some space on github to keep track of the project.....what were we doing in the first place?
