The following is what metallurgy is now using. The key here, in case you might
be wondering why each rating level is a separate image compared to the
repeating image used in the old ui (mythmusic) is to allow any representation
to be used, including text.
Some ideas to get everyone started:
* Stars (with different colours for different ratings e.g. Bronze, Silver,
Gold)
* Simply the numbers 1-5 maybe with some accompanying image/colour scheme
* Thumbs up/down
* Single star (or other image) which gets larger the better the film
* Clap boards or any image instead of stars
* Animated image for 5 star films
* 'Good', 'Bad', 'Ugly'
* Or your own choice of text - 'Awesome' through to 'Cr*p'
