USB Mass Storage Project

[Squidge]

Not sure if this should go here or Off-topic. If it's in the wrong area, can someone move it? Thanks.

As some of you probably know, I'm in the middle of writing a USB Mass Storage driver for the GP32, so it'll look like a disk drive to windows, and just show up as another driver letter. USB code is done, SMC code is done, I'm just working on the actual drive emulation now. It will emulate a SCSI disk device, so hopefully will be compatible with more than just Windows

Now, I'm looking for someone whos bored, or has time on there hands.... Whilst coding this, I'd like you to throw some names at me as to what to call this. "GP32 Mass storage driver" is a boring name, and already taken by Firefly's read-only mass storage driver. Logos and/or backdrop pictures would be welcomed also if you want to express your name that way.

The winning entry will see there name on the first public release If I receive anything "magical", then I may send them versions prior to the public release, if they wish to receive such versions.

So, with prizes like that, what are you waiting for?

Well, the poll is over and both "SquidgeStore" and "gpDrive" have 20.99%. Doing a bit of juggling says that "gpDrive" is going to be the name.

DJWillis was the first person to mention "gpDrive", so he wins the compo

Now, anyone want to do a backdrop image/logo around this name?
