So I was looking back at old theme day artwork and I noticed how theme days have become largely more niche-targeted and resultingly less participated in. Are there any theme days where we had a strong participation that people would like to revisit (perhaps with a new twist)? Some of the ones I can remember: Humor, Partner Collaboration, X-Mas in July, movie poster (of a comic not currently in c2f development), magazine...

Hmm, what else? Anybody else interested in revisiting a theme day? maybe the theme days with the most votes get sequelized?

I'd love to revisit some old Theme Days. The only one I can vouch for is X-Mas in July, which Kev, if you've noticed, it's not July just yet

, but you needn't worry, I fully intend to create an X-Mas in July when the time is right.

The newbie/oldie collaboration worked well with me an' StrangeFish.

The difference in doing it now is the semi-retirement of some of us oldies, plus that last year's newbies are this year's oldies!

I'm up for a sequel. Things like Books2Film or VideoGames2Film, the stuff that doesn't get represented much in the usual updates, thems could be good. The Magazine cover one was cool as well, again cos it was something different.

Or I've often thought about doing a theme day for people who missed theme days but wanted to post their pic anyway.

Of course Kev, Essex, Zac, Xenos, BXL and Marcelo know all about theme day sequels...

Is this thing happening?? Collaboration would be cool. I also enjoyed the transgender and second rate supervillain theme days. Videogames2film sounds good too. So many possibilies!! So little time!! AAGH!!

Hey guys,

I'm definitely a newbie. School should be done in a couple of weeks, so I hope something gets finalized. I'm eager to get into this manipulation thing....It's my first time, please be gentle.
Thanks
Dean

I still feel like a newbie! If we did this.. could I still be the newbie?

miss jellybrain, we just have to decide which one(s) have the most interest. i'd hate to flood the dcg with 2-piece theme days. if all the people who are willing to participate are in this thread, well...
