Default Picking out gobos

So I get to pick out 120 gobos for the new theater. It sounds cool at first then quickly turns overwhelming. Obviously I want a bunch of leaves and clouds... but when you start looking at breakups and other bloby things it gets a little dizzying. So do you have any special tricks you pull with gobos? Is there anything you would say... hey don't forget to get a couple of___ they looked really cool for____. I've got two GAM twinspin indexable rotators coming. The winning bid vendor chose Rosco gobos so that's the catalog I have to choose from (Sorry Keith... I am getting 4 Right Arms and two 400 watt power supplies from Apollo, so that's a good chunk of change).

Thanks.
