Avatar Theme Week Central 5: Don't stop the theming!
Welcome to Theme Week!
After the last one of these threads died, I am hoping we can bring it back to life. And, maybe, hopefully, we can finally, FINALLY!, have Formally Naked Dragon With Poor Eyesight Running Away From Pie Week. So, feel free to contribute, participate, lurk, contribute some more, and have fun.
This thread will be for suggesting new theme ideas and discussing old ones. To request, discuss, or show off avatars, consult the individual threads for each theme.

Here's how things happen:
The process for choosing a new week is currently as follows:
1. Nomination phase: People nominate new weeks by suggesting their Theme Week Idea in bold.
2. Voting phase: All of the nominated weeks are listed and each person can vote for their top three choices in bold red. You may also vote for a week. It may be good to have a week every 4 weeks so there is time for nominating and voting, and so we aren't changing avatars too frequently to keep up with.
3. Yay! We Won! phase: Once a week is chosen, one of the supporters for that week should make a separate thread for the theme week in question and then link it in this thread so I can add it to the archives above.

Re: Avatar Theme Week Central 5: Don't stop the theming!
IT'S BEEN SO LONG.
Okay, I'm nominating the theme of Alternate Art Style.
(By which I mean, let's say, if you have an OotS-style avatar, you could make a pixel one, or a realistic one, or an anime-style one, or one of the dozens other styles that exist!)Originally Posted by on Dwarf Fortress succession gamesOriginally Posted by Dwarf Fortress 0.40.01 bugs

Asian Week ... a tribute to the old Kung Fu, Samurai, or Bollywood movies!

Re: Avatar Theme Week Central 5: Don't stop the theming!
I nominate Appeal to Obscurity Week, where you dress up to promote something that you think needs more love and exposure.

Re: Avatar Theme Week Central 5: Don't stop the theming!
If we give two weeks for nomination and two weeks for voting, we have one theme week each month. The two weeks of nomination seems a little stretched, but one theme week a month sounds okay.
What do you guys think?Avatar made by Bradakhan| Other avatars.

Re: Avatar Theme Week Central 5: Don't stop the theming!
One a month has been done, but I think it depends on the workload for the avatarists. How hard is it to do ( since I am an avatar beggar myself) ?

Re: Avatar Theme Week Central 5: Don't stop the theming!
It really doesn't take much time, usually around half an hour for me, but a bigger problem is priority. How important is it compared to other things?

Re: Avatar Theme Week Central 5: Don't stop the theming!
I'd love a Steampunk week, but looks like one of those happened pretty recently.
In that case, seconding Cyberpunk.Last edited by Peebles; 2015-02-16 at 10:46 AM.

Re: Avatar Theme Week Central 5: Don't stop the theming!
To be precise, here is the thing that probably kept it going, thanks to Kris.
'Cause then Rawhide put it as his avatar for a while.

Re: Avatar Theme Week Central 5: Don't stop the theming!
Wrong
This theme was made as a joke people, because I felt the theme thread was taking itself too serioulsy at the time. And also i had this joke where i combined the votes of people in a single avatar.
It's meant to be deliberately confusing, contradictory, over specific and weird as possible. I'm not sure weither you arguing on the words makes me very amused or very sad.
Do whatevr yu will with it but for the sake of the original joke, it's 'formally'
Kris made an avvie of it.
Anyhow:
Hat week
