Oh yes that insp post is spectacular, but really seeing how I only managed to post this set because of the extension, I couldn't be happier about 10in30's return, it's just the right size for me. The only drawback is that I need to pick a fandom, I usually like to use a pseudorandom method I developed a while ago for subject selection, but it only works for multifandom sets :p oh and there are so many possible themes too - close/far and vibrant/pale would be great indeed but also minimalistc vs extra complex, dark vs light, extra matte vs extreme lighting, texture overdose vs no textures.... how to choose?

But battle, yes! Do you have any ideas? Should we randomise themes and techniques? I'm open to any battle 'mode' you like, minus a 100% screencap battle perhaps, those are not my favourite.

Yeah, I think the given caps work the best for big battle with lost of makers with really different styles so it's cool to see how the same cap can become so many different things. But for us I think technical or other types of themes would work the best, so random themes sound perfect. I wish there was a massive list of possible themes somewhere that we could just easily randomize from, but I guess we have to write our own! I really liked the way we used to do those DW icons with raiindust for watchnicon, iirc some of them had given caps, some had a provided texture and some had a provided font? Or maybe it was cap / theme / texture or font? But we could have most of them as themes, with a few provided resource themes mixed in.

//ETA and yes loose deadline of a month or so definitely sounds like the way to go for both of us xD
