Yes, let's do this. We've had nude week far too many times before. Work Week is new and fresh (and, above all, will be awesomely fun).

Soo...with Eldritch abomination week behind us, what do you think if we open the voting?

VOTING OPENED TILL OCTOBER 17th


Remember please, three votes each (you don't have to use all three, of course), to be posted in red in this thread.

Nominations!

NOMINATIONVotesNOTES
Pie week -Pie!
Nude Week-Everybody is naked invisible!
Cuisine week - You are cooking food, or eating food, or maybe you just are food...
Desire week - Desire takes many forms, whether its a craving for something, lusting after that special someone or even a desire for revenge
The Future week- -your chance to show off your jetpack, flying car, private spaceship, personal robot butler, or any of those other pieces of wonderful future technology that we were all supposed to have.
Crime vs, The Law week -Stereotypical criminals versus members of the law enforcement profession, could work wonders for freeform roleplaying with heists and police raids being planned, jailbreaks being achieved in the most unlikely of ways (for example with a smuggled teddybear- without anything hidden inside) and safe houses on both sides being taken out- and nobody knows which side the mods would really be on, do they?
Robot Week - 
Work Week -Your avatar is shown in your current job, your favorite job you've had, or a job you hope to have.
FoYL(Fruits of Your Labor) Week -Your avatar is shown enjoying some of your country's or the country you're currently in's exports. You could alternatively have your avatar enjoying what you make yourself at your job(if applicable).
First Custom Avvie Week -Use your first ever avatar. Not counting any generic site provided ones.
Mistaken Identity - the idea of Mistaken Identity Week is that you swap avatars (and signatures, and locations) with someone else, and then watch the fireworks fly.
Vacation Week - 
Local Stereotypes Week - 
Team up week - Playgrounders crate teams like in sports or political gropups. They dress their avatar the same like a uniform.
Masquerade week. - Paper faces on parade!

I vote... Masquerade week, Desire week and Team-up week.

Work Week because when the guy who makes the 'destroy the universe' button wants something, you give it to him.

I could also use a little help. I have a placeholder avatar up at the moment but I'd like to use this:


...only I have no idea what to do with regards to a background. Should she be floating on something? Resting on a bed? Sunning herself on a hellish beach?

I really have no idea.

You know, if you voted for Desire Week, you could still get to use those handcuffs on Lix, if she's into that....

Well, yeah, but I'd prefer the suggestion to be 'subtle' rather than blatant.

As in, I'd like that to be implied rather than the only possible interpretation.
