Hi Steve

Some ways I would do it, given what you have described:

1. Store in the image itself. An ordered collection can be used to store the your MOTD objects and iterate over them with the #do:, #select:, etc methods. For images I would store them on the file system and use a URI from your objects to point to it.

2. SQLite (https://github.com/pharo-rdbms/Pharo-SQLite3).

3. If you wish to distribute this then maybe a central server the your client can pull the MOTD objects from. Something running Teapot talking to SQLite3 or even Postgres via Sven���s excellent P3 (https://github.com/svenvc/P3).

4. Something I was thinking of looking into more is John Aspinall���s ReStore for Pharo (https://github.com/rko281/ReStoreForPharo).
