More, a CSS compiler

Naming's hard, and sort of pointless to obsess over for a programming tool IMO. Especially when the conflicting tool literally predates the web (and me, for that matter).

Of course, if a better name presents itself I'll run with it.

The real issue is this: if I Google 'more', I'm less likely to find what I want than if I search for 'MoreCSS' (or similar). And you'd also be surprised just how a name can click in people's minds. "MightyMouse" feels much cooler than "More".

Ask 5 of your friends to come up with 5 names and then pick from the best of the 25 you get back. BTW, awesome project, love the sprite work!

Yeah, the spriting here is interesting... I'm a fan of the spriting with compass (SASS/SCSS alternative). Could be a good guide as you're improving this. Check it out: http://compass-style.org/help/tutorials/spriting/

It is absolutely not pointless. Just because it's hard doesn't make it pointless.

Naming matters a ton if you want people to adopt your thing.
