well, here's my list of suggestions for the next theme:

- Easter (already mentioned)
- Vector
- Movie/Game (probably set a year scale)
- Collaboration
- Abstract
- Same Render/Stock
- No c4d's
- Sprite
- Typography
- Pentool
- Upcoming events
- Music
- Marvel

etc. there are many more i could list, but that would take too long and i can't be bothered at the moment.

I think you should. In fact if you don't I'll stick you with a needle containing polonium.

well im not catholic either but i find myself (and a large percentage of the secular population) observing the holiday, taking part, chocolate eggs and so forth.

i celebrate easter being a christian so i understand the symbolism of the eggs etc, whereas the secular population probably doesnt either...

i think it doesnt matter really, between easter and christmas (both christian/similar denomination holidays) people still take part and or observe the holiday...[/spoiler]

i think easter, usernames (your own), cars...

and to expand on the cars genre, we could do something to celebrate the Melbourne Formula 1 Grand Prix (this time a twilight race), and do a F1 related sig? maybe do an individual team? i has some ideas already :P

and photography sure, maybe not specifically your own photography, but maybe aslong as you credit the photo(s) used accordingly or just have permission of the photographer. i have some photos from my trip to Sydney i can use....

From experience car sigs aren't the best looking sigs, which is what we are trying to acheive with this. They just fill up too much space.

Collabs is a definate no from me, it could result in unfair pairings of either two noobs, or two (near)pros

I agree Easter would be a good theme.

cjl is right, car sigs don't exactly work

i'd go with things like

-vector
-simplistic
-no brushes
-smudge
-abstract
-specific render/character
etc

but i would go with easter for this one =d

i didnt talk specifically of a car, i only mentioned something to "celebrate the Melbourne Formula 1 Grand Prix", this could be down to a stylised team siggy (possibly with the team drivers or whatever), i never actually specified that it had to be a car in it..... heck, grid girls might be in order? (and if its hard to work with cars for sigs, isnt that just a challenge that can be worked with?)

maybe if we just do a major sporting event, superbowl, any number of the 'insert country here' open's (tennis)..... etc etc..... or whatever other major sport event.....

It was expected. I would have voted for that too.
Well done Nightmare.
