SOTW Themes (New)

Ok, I have decided to revamp this thread listing the current suggestions and for the "ease" of finding them! You may suggest new themes but be sure to adhere to the rules of the thread per DB:

Please list your suggestions in this thread and some ideas to help boost or sell your suggested theme. Do not just post a 1 word suggestion. Please give reasons as to why you would like to see this theme appear in the upcoming SOTW. Thank you.

Now here are the current suggested themes! I may have modified them for length and I may have broadened the theme(s) suggested. If your idea is not listed it is because I felt it already fit a previously suggested theme. Likewise I took them first come first serve in terms of WHO suggested what so no complaining.

1) Freedom

3) Maids
4) Girls
5) Space
6) Nature
7) Cooking/Food
8) Sports
9) Specific Anime Titles and/or Characters

You know, the little things in life that people ususally don't spend the time to appreciate. And the things people take advantage of. Like, a sunny day, a rainy day, the butterflies and ladybugs, the ants on an ant hill - their own colony. Those are only a few ideas.

41) Simplicity

Quote:

Simplicity being a raindrop on a rose [in black & white], or a close up of the texture of the road. An individual in a crowd on the streets of NY, holding an umbrella or something. [Again, it could be in Black and White.]

42) Things of importance

Quote:

43) Favorite AO mod!

Quote:

44) Ocean/Beach

Quote:

Originally Posted by Shinku no kage

｢夏だ!!海だ!!｣と言う事でテーマは｢夏｣!? "The summer!! The ocean!!", so hows 'bout "Summer" for the theme!? A pic of the big blue sea, fun in the summer sun, and all that other good stuff y'know?

45) Girls with Guns

Quote:

An idea from my failed SOTW entry. "Girls with Guns". Nyahahahah. (=w=)

46) Video Games/Companies

Quote:

Originally Posted by DEMON SPAWN

what about video games? that would make an interesting theme.

47) Angels

Quote:

Originally Posted by KuwiRules145

This may be a stupid idea but I think angels! I love angels and I know their so beautiful indeed! Or summer!!!!!! Summer indeed! :D:

48) Explosions/Fireworks
49) Cosplay

Quote:

50) AO themed

Quote:

Originally Posted by HolderOfTheDarkChalice

this might not make much since to most but why not an AO themed sig contest to show a sig that best represents AO and all that it has to offer. i mean all these ideas are good but no one has brung up an idea for AO its self that would be intresting to see

51) Sweets
52) Joker/Jester

Quote:

Originally Posted by Mr. K

o.o Has sweets been a theme(?) I mean like candy or cupcakes, fruits Got another. How about the "Joker/Jester"

Re: SOTW Themes (New)

How about since it is almost 4th of July something to do with Fireworks? Though I know not everyone is from the US. Though I just love the Fireworks idea.

Edit: I know that is why I suggested the 4th of July.

It was already suggested as part of # 48. Personally I would like to see the themes of Samurai/Warriors or Cars/vehicles.

Re: SOTW Themes (New)

how about a theme of friends? not just anime or whatever, but a sig about your friends in everyday life? maybe even about your friends on AO?

^_^ i think it would add a more personal touch to the cliche topic of "friends"

Re: SOTW Themes (New)

here's just a thought, but how about doin a sci-fi themed sig. something with a space background, or something along those lines. i always loved watching the stars.

oh and speaking of stars u could always do a celebrity themed one as well, but i'm not a big fan of celebrities.

Re: SOTW Themes (New)

I am making a new rule for this thread.

Rule:
READ THE PREVIOUSLY SUGGESTED THEMES BEFORE SUGGESTING SOMETHING.

I am going to start deleting posts and handing out infractions to those who are buffing their post count suggesting stuff already listed. I mean I made it easy, it is all listed in 1 post and numbered. C'mon people.

Re: SOTW Themes (New)

ok but u can still agree with other members ideas tho right ....????

but yeah i would like something to do with sumer and what not hat about sesions .... soo if u anted to do fireworks u would do oct ( halloween)Ky-lyrra

Re: SOTW Themes (New)

The thread's purpose is to provide "suggestions" for the SOTW winner or DB to pick from. I don't see where "agreeing" or "disagreeing" with someone's suggestion is a viable post here. Since it is up to the SOTW winner or DB what the theme is, why would it matter if you liked the theme someone else suggested? If you don't like the themes, then suggest something "better" and maybe the person picking will choose yours. Bad themes simply won't be picked, end of story. No need for anyone's "approval" or agreement. That only serves to clutter the thread and make the suggestions harder to find.

Thus it is suggestions (Not already suggested) or nothing.

I also thought about the theme since there is a number of GIMP users and a number of PS users…and even some who use others; maybe the theme could be Program vs Program, meaning that the sig must promote GIMP or PS or what ever program you use. The sigs would only contain something that showed the superior nature of that program. (Your best sig is not what I am talking about) I mean sig would have to have the program you use’s name in it somewhere and it must show the range of abilities of the program (filters, smudging, blending, layers, etc…)
