Wow! A lot as been going on here :)
María, I like your proposals (3D, dynamic backgrounds, etc), I've been
thinking about the samething, but I didn't say anything because I thought
that it'd be stupid and not welcome.
I would like to talk to you about this, and maybe we can let the rest know
about what we reach as a conclusion :)
