Like most everyone else, I like the small and oddly shaped idea.

1 - Games re-imagined/improved. Like megaman as an fps, or pokemon like pokemon tower defense.
2 - (As there seems to be no stitches of modern games) Pixelate modern games. So you could stitch flash portal, or, well, exactly like these:

I really, really like the cake (would cupcakes count too?) idea as well as the astrology sign/elements. OH! And the tiny/odd shaped ones.... Can we do them all? There's so many good ideas!

This might be a better idea for a swap, but what about doing something like a deck of cards. It could be Tarot or plain playing cards, but everyone would be able to pick what "suit" they want and then have to figure out which card to make. For example, having Peach as the Queen of Hearts, or Tails as the Jack of Diamonds. (Diamonds, rings, :grin: ) Maybe if we get enough people for it, we could have a full deck!

That idea has been proposed before, but it requires some work. Standardising the size of the cards, making sure we don't get too many of one game, etc. It was kinda put on a back burner.
I quite like the idea though. Possibly better as a side challenge?

That's true, and I know that you and BMH are working hard enough on the challenges and swaps as is! I guess put that into the "maybe" pile. :grin:

He has many other talents! Having far too many ideas for one person to contain is one of them! :P

I'll think of a way to get this idea in this year, somehow.
