Theme Week 005 - In Memory Of

Creepy, spooky, and sweet things, perhaps?

Also, cue the dancing skeletons!

But isn’t this the first year anniversary of the website? This is a big deal! You and the mods have kept this website from drowning itself in it water bowl, so we can keep enjoying the lovable, punchable creatures that we’ve all fallen in love with. I’d say that’s something worth celebrating. From the ashes of the old will the breath of life renew.

We can always say “celebrate the past year, but make it spooky”. Kinda fitting for our small empire of evil

Should archived story requests be made as a comment or should a message be sent?

Messages will probably work better so they’re not lost as easily.
You can send them to me.

more than one entry is acceptable ?
there is more than one guy that I want to be remenbered

can you explain a little bit more about this sandbag points stuff ? xD

In past competitions there were times when the same person would win over and over and over again, to the point where if they participated at all, then others would not.
To alleviate the chances of this happening again, we decided that after the votes are cast, the winner of the preceeding Theme Week would have a -3 modifier applied to their score, the runner-up would have a -2 modifier, and the third place winner would have a -1 modifier.
These are applied after the vote is taken.
These only apply to the Theme Week directly after the person’s win.
(so they will have absolutely no effect on Theme Week 006)

Yes you can have multiple entries, but they’ll be considered as one large entry when it comes time to vote for the winner.

Ah the booru, such a love … hate relationship. I am happy its gone, alot of my art was to violent and controversial for today’s viewing audience l. But then again im starting from scratch. I no longer have 1100 pictures, its now 100 + which is fine for now.

The idea that there is a 1000+ images you made that you consider more violent and controversial than your current work and I will never get to see them is quite distressing.

At some point I hope that we’ll do the same thing for CarniviousDuck’s work that we did with Artist-Kun’s. It took quite a while but @Mr_Owl was able to repost literally all of AK’s work from the booru years.

The theme week is reminiscing old booru by doing fan art of OG booru artists. Right?

If you were on the Booru, then yes
If you were not, then it’s a time when you can pay homage to any creator that has influenced you.

You can reminisce about literally anything that you loved (or hated) about fluffybooru, 4chan threads, etc.

(But I’m trying to nudge this in a more loving direction. I want to pay homage to the people that kept those websites up and running)

Really looking forward to seeing what others do because my memories surrounding the booru itself are about as held together as a fluffy pony’s bowels.

I think you’re right.

I’m not happy to agree.
But you’re right.
