Title: Ninja Flamingos 2016 Theme Draw Info VOTING CLOSED [MUPPETS]
Post by: GoblinFae on April 28, 2016, 05:11:08 PM
Welcome!

This is for the 2016 Ninja Flamingos Theme Draw. Members who join are asked to draw a representation of their selected user based on our chosen theme in a way that is similar to secret santa. For anyone interested in joining our biannual event please message GoblinFae who can get you up to speed with how the event works and to answer any of your burning questions.

This specific thread is for brainstorming all of our ideas for potential themes that we will choose before the event begins. We aren't narrowing down ideas right now, so feel free to throw out whatever comes to your mind. However, there are a few simple rules as follows:

     1. First and foremost, have fun!
     2. Don't knock other people's ideas down, please.*
     3. Feel free to second other people's ideas!
     4. Try to think of themes that would be easy to do... nothing too specific.
     5. Last but not least (and I doubt this will be a problem), remember that these drawings will be child appropriate! So keep the ideas appropriate!

*If you have a reason that you believe someone's ideas is absolutely horrible and would never work, message GoblinFae. Don't write it in here. We want this to be a friendly, non-judgmental sharing area.

Sorry! So like in secret santa where people are randomly assigned to get gifts for each other we are randomly assigned to draw for each other. So for instance based on my username someone might draw a goblin. Or for Lion they might draw some form of lion. If you check out the links below you can see how we keep it new and exciting :)

I'm definitely in!

I think we should do 30's Noir/Detective Mysteries, Secret Agents/Bond, or gangsters.  Something with suits! :))
