I think that in spelljammer the sizes: fine to colossal do not help
much. A new way to sizing must be used right now.
   
  In the epic level handbook, bigger than Colossal creatures go
Colossal+ (for 1 size bigger than colossal) to Colossal by n plusses (
for n sizes bigger than colossal)
   
  In the same epic level handbook are a template who converts an animal
into a titanic animal. The monster is in fact Colossal+ or Colossal + 1
size
  So Colossal+=Titanic.
   
  Now in the Inmortal's Handbook http://www.immortalshandbook.com (a
OGL-based book about epic creatures ) a name is applied to bigger size
categories.
   
  The categories in question reach from Fine to Titanic (Titanic being
one size larger than colossal), and then from Macro-Fine to Macro-
Titanic, then Mega-Fine to Mega-Titanic, and so on. Colossal+7 (also
written Colossal+++++++) is thus equal to Macro-Large.
   
  I wonder if that categories of the inmortal handbook have copywrite.
   
  Some examples about the same company responsible for the book and similar epic tomes are:
  Godzila - as Macro-Fine equals the size on original japanese movies,
bigger than the american movie (Titanic only, i think)
  http://www.immortalshandbook.com/freestuff3.htm
  Lavos - as Macro-Large equals the size of a city -metropolis-.
  http://d20npcs.wikia.com/wiki/Brobdignagian_Teratoid_Tarrasque
   
  Well, i do not know much about spelljammer ships, but surely some
ships and monsters such as some witchling marauders are bigger than
colosal size.
