WHAT EXACTLY DOES NIMBUS MEAN?
First I would like to establish the fact that our name is in fact "nimbus", NOT "the nimbus project", as some of you have come to call it because of our site's address (geocities.com/nimbus_project) or my email ([email protected]). Geocities.com said that "geocities.com/nimbus" had been taken (as did hotmail) when we signed up to create this shit-ass page, but I then headed over to "www.geocities.com/nimbus" and discovered that they were in fact BULLSHITTING ME - this site doesn't actually exist.   Well then, on with the definition..........
nimbus:
1. A cloudy radiance said to surround a classical deity when on earth.
2. A radiant light that appears usually in the form of a circle or halo about or over the head in the representation of a god, demigod, saint or sacred person such as a king or an emperor.
3. A splendid atmosphere or aura, as of glamour, that surrounds a person or thing.
4. A rain cloud, especially a low dark layer of clouds such as a nimbostratus.
