I don't see anything wrong with just using simple sprites of ACGTs, especially starting out, but it would be really awesome if we could somehow make it geometrically valid, where the pieces actually fit together. Probably not for a first draft though. One idea I had was to display the molecules with the letter inside the pyrimidine rings. Thoughts?

Rough mockup of what I'm talking about:

Except that's not adenine lol. But you get the idea.

I think this is something worth focusing on if we can come back to this idea after NoTD. I just want to make sure we have enough for the demo.

Closing for now.
