Hello. :) I've been thinking about this for some time now. Right now, Linden dollars are intangible things that are simply green, digitalized numbers on the top right corner of your screen. My balance at the moment is L$-1 :o What would be a cool design for a Linden dollar? Could the Lindens make them special prims? Here is one design based off of monopoly money...

The boring green/red picture in the middle thing is too much like the US dollar. Let's make it a little more creative. Governor Linden with shoes in his butt, or one side gray and the other side Missing Texture.

That rocks!

Plus, now we know exactly what a "Hippo's worth" is.

So next time someone wants to add their hipposworth to the discussion, you know they mean their L$2.

Excellent idea with the coins! Maybe we can call the coins Linders, Lindeblooms, Lincents, or Lindairs. Now that we have minted a 2L coin, I have also minted one worth only 5 cents (a fraction of the Linden dollar) It is called the Rosie Head Nickel.

The coin is awesome(!!), but when I read the question, the first thing that popped into my head was a red bill, with Philip on the front and a picture of the LL headquarters on the back...lol

Agree with Honeybear on the pictures. Would prefer money green, being very traditional about things like money. And propose adding the legend, "In Code We Trust." And of course the signature of the LL treasurer.

well.. money comes in varying colours depending on the country and when its from, so green isn't necessarily the most traditional at all

True, there I am, being all insular USA and all. Tell you what, make the L$1 denomination like that, to go with the George Washington US$1 dollar bill, and I'll be happy. Then go crazy with the other denominations. (Except one should have the furriest furry possible on the front.)

I did. Did anyone else?
I thought about adding the legal warnings about use of the Linden dollar but I thought it would be depressing and I was lazy I didn't want to type it all out.

I think at least one bill or coin should have a picture of someone wearing quasi-unrezzed clothing--white with black writing on it.
