The roundup for our last activity will come soon(ish), but first, a poll:

What kind of activities do you like doing? I'd just like to get a feel for what we as a community like the most.

You can check as many as you like! I'm always going to make sure that the themes are alternating/rotating, and I will prefer the types which get the most votes.

Please feel free to discuss and make suggestions in the comments!

The last time I asked for and got some theme/activity suggestions was in August last year. I haven't used them all yet, but I'll definitely welcome new suggestions at any time!

If you don't know what Ask the Maker is, here's our tag: https://icontalking.dreamwidth.org/tag/ask+the+maker

I am pretty sure this activity was our most successful one in the history of this comm. Everyone seemed to get sucked into it and made a ton of icons. I never expected this - I thought I was the only one who still remembered and liked song sets. Boy, was I wrong!

97 icons in 17 sets by 10 makers, in order of submission this time )

Thank you so much for participating, everyone! <3

Feel free to comment here or on each maker's threads linked next to their name.

Our next activity will be posted next weekend.
