So many good suggestions, it's going to be hard voting. <3
I thought of two more:
Villains Flashback (...or something? Where you dress up your profile in a way that it was before at some point? I dunno about anyone else, but I still have the very old avatars that I used here way back when. xD)

My first ever avatar was a Neopian Times image, so that would be easy!
But then there was the time my avatar was just a random picture of a doormat I found online...so many possibilities!

BWAHAHAAHAAHAHA >D *lightning strike in background* (...Okay but yeah, I do often really like seeing people's old art, because I get to enjoy where they came from and how much they've grown. ^^ And as far as I'm concerned, every artist in this place is awesome, so. =3 (It probably contributed to the "Flashback" idea, but last week I got the utterly random urge to draw one of my old original characters from 2005, and I had fun digging up the ancient references to use. xP))

Oh, well, I should nominate something for posterity!
And that thing is ICE CREAM!!!! Or really, anything to do with frozen confections! They are an art unto their own. :0)

MMMM yes! I would have to go with the classic hokey pokey, of course, and rep my home nation. =P
And with that, nominations for themes are closed! I'll get a poll up in the next few days and we can start the voting. =D

Yeah, it's more or less our national flavor, and hard to find elsewhere.

Hey guys! The poll is now up. =) Fun story: I couldn't find the document I saved the nominations in. =O Which sucks, I had to redo it from scratch (thankfully, there were only a few double-ups.) Still, if anything looks like it could do with fixing, just let me know!
You can vote for five themes each, and the top five will be chosen as the themes for this year's Spirit Weeks! I haven't decided on an exact closing date for the poll yet, but this will run for a few weeks. Plenty of time to think about it! =)

Choosing was/is so difficult. ='D There are so many good ones.
All the more reason to look forward to it. ^^

I'm not sure if I should vote for colors or monochromatic, as they're both basically the same concept for this.

June Scarlet This was brought up on Discord: I took it to mean 'monochromatic' would entail making your profile a single colour (or gradients/shades/etc of one colour), and 'colours' would allow for any combination of colours/celebration of colours. e.g; to use my own preferences: I'd use purple for 'monochromatic', either keeping my current avatar or going back to my Nyx one, and filling my signature with a block of different shades of purple. For 'colours', I might base my profile around the different colours of the sunset- or the colours of my favourite bedspread- or, heck, just a bunch of pretty colours I find appealing. Or the song 'Colours' by Halsey haha I'm hilarious.

Hey guys! Voting has slowed down a lot, and it looks like we'll need time to run a tiebreaker poll before the start of the event for fifth place!
For this reason, I'm going to close voting a little early, on the 31st of March, so I can get the tiebreaker poll sorted. Please let me know either through this thread or in a PM if you have any issues with this!
