Some patterns are like this already (the fire logo comes to mind immediately).
However, finding these patterns can be difficult, as they're generally named
after the first part that uses them.  Could a file naming convention be setup so
that all the patterns are located near each other in a file listing?  Something
like

xpDESCRI.dat or pDESCRIP.dat

where DESC is an abbreviated description of the pattern.

for example

pFIRE.dat would be the fire logo
pCLSPACE.dat would be the classic space logo

Using numbers won't work, since the pattern numbers vary quite a bit from part
to part.

Just my thoughts.
