I agree with you Robin. I think we have all improved much more than we could have imagined.

I may be off topic with you talking about marg's b-day and such, but I have a showcase suggestion. I know your going to end up not paying any attention to this, but I may as well give it a shot. A Fashion showcase. Like think-drawing people wearing fashionable clothes or, or just the clothes and no people! I am an amatuer designer. I design clothes for the fun of it and then bring them to life. This will be fun because I haven't really been too interested in the other showcases so, this will be fun for whatever designers may be on this site or, anyone else who is not a designer and never really thought about the fun in it this would be a fun and creative change in showcase! ( And yes, I know showcases aren't permanent and I understand my showcase will not be up forever. What I do understand is how it will be fun!) I hope I've made my point.

I think a fashion/clothing showcase could be fun. I know at least one artist whose probebly chomping at the bit to unveil a whole spring/summer line of thongs!!!! This would be a perfect chance for that.

I have an idea for showcase, too. Arty did a pik of an African Flycatcher bird (sorry if the title is wrong) and it got me thinking as I posted a comment.

Many of us enjoy wildlife, birds included. Many of us won't have the chance to travel abroad for many reasons. I think that just about every city, state, and country has some kind of a bird that is the "official" state/national bird. They are usually common to areas. While they may be common to you, they may be unseen by people in other locals.

Could we do a showcase of these birds? It would give us a chance to see nature through the prism of proud artists all over the globe.

Just a thought. It could tumble into many showcase ideas. State/National birds, flowers (which I happen to luv as well), even songs. That being said, I'll end this post with the first line of my State song.

Here we go (big breath inward)...

Ooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooklahoma, where the winds come sweeping down the plains!

sorry, maddyjean..

I broke my own rule and digressed in the Think Draw Feedback forum - really sorry !

I think a 'Fashion' showcase would be great (just leave it general) - and I also like Peasy's idea of county/state/national emblems - that could cover most everything you're proud of ! (thinks.. I'd like to have a go at the yellow rose of Texas)

Yeah. I agree. Peasy's idea seems fun. I could (attempt to) make a pheasant for SD!

Maddy and Peasy: both of your Ideas are great! im sure they would both be a blast!.... and the first bit of my state song......
Come to this land of sunshine
To this land where life is young.
Where the wide, wide world is waiting,
The songs that will now be sung.

I think the Showcase needs to be cleaned out again. The first page is almost full of pictures that have nothing to do with the Beatles.

Someone said that they are looking forward to seeing how much we have improved since Halloween Showcase 2008...

How can we see how much "WE" have improved when none of the 2008 artist are with us to compare the "WE"???

To the missing, know that you are missed...

maddyjean08

I've been missing for like, three days. Well, stop missing! I'm here!

You have a point, matthew, but we can compare.

94. 18 Oct 2009 09:02

maddyjean08

Yeah, some of the really good artist's aren't on as much anymore. It's hard to compare without anything to compare to!

I was going to protest that I'm still here and I've been around since before the Halloween'08 showcase, but then I realized I didn't submit any pic's to that showcase and I haven't yet submitted one to this showcase. So no protest after all.

Well, it was good to think it through.

.........BIRTH............ Babies & Hatch lings ... Could turn out some really cute pics I think...

98. 27 Oct 2009 21:16

matthew

Magnification or Microscopic... IE: Close up views of things...

99. 28 Oct 2009 10:15

maddyjean08

Yeah, matthew! That's perfect! Who thinks we should magnify our pics? Oooh! I thought of one. Like, magnify a part of a pic we've already made. Like my "Attempt at Ghost" . I could like, magnify into the head!

hmmm... actually, I love both the Fashion showcase idea AND the one of doing a Zoom-in Close-up of a part of one of our earlier pix!
