Skinners, Artists, Coders, and Testers Needed: Community Suite

Happy Birthday!!

Wednesday, February 6, 2008 by ZubaZ | Discussion: Community

After the success on the Troll Thumping Day Suite some members of the Mother Thumpers are coming together to create the "Happy Birthday Suit(e)".

I envision this suite centered around a DX gadget that counts down to your birthday. On your birthday the gadget will prompt you to download the most recent incarnation of the suite components so for your special day, your desktop will celebrate with you.

At this point we have some components assigned to artists but this is a collaborative project and welcome input and assistance from everyone. Please jump in and help out if you'd like.

I think we have to launch this suite on someone's birthday ....
Someone who is taking part s this suite ... or someone secial ...
What about this idea ??????


I think we need a date too.  Who's got a birthday in May?  That's probably enough time to get it done but not so long htat it gets stale (based on the TTD suite)..

HGE and BoXXi.  Noted.

Also . . if two people want to either collaborate or do different versions of the same element, I'm cool with that too.  It can follow the TTD mode and have subsets.

My only concern is that the suite be cohesive.  If you want to go off and do something that doesn't fit . . totally cool . . it's just not part of Happy Birthday Suit(e)
