The next activity will be coming up on the weekend (I hope! I'm currently setting up a new computer and have to reinstall everything, things are going a bit slower than I'd like).

The results of this activity were less numerous than the last, but everyone who participated loved the challenge idea. Thank you very much, I'm happy it resonated with you. And the results are absolutely stunning - everyone really went out of their comfort zone! <3

Next round coming up sometime next week.

The results of this round are nothing short of inspired! <3

( 6 makers made 42 icons )

Our next activity will be posted in the next few days. It will be a texture-making activity. If you have texture theme suggestions, let me know, I haven't finally decided on a theme yet.

Yay, there was quite a bit of action in this year's Ask The Maker! Questions, tutorials, interaction!
