Mood Theme in a Year: Second Medium Track Run

[soc_puppet]

Hello, everyone! Over at moodthemeinayear, the second Medium Track run has just started.

For those not familiar with the schedule over there, the Medium Mood Track lasts about three months, and covers all of the higher-level moods: The fifteen absolute minimum moods you need for a complete custom mood theme, and the next nineteen that have moods that branch off of them (plus two extra). If you want to create a custom mood theme that's fairly well filled out but don't want to go for the whole 132 graphics, the Medium Track may be for you!

If you want to try and min-max your mood theme, on the other hand, the Minimum Track has also restarted; it lasts six weeks, and takes you through the bare minimum fifteen moods you need for a complete custom mood theme, plus the next three most populous higher-level moods, so you get the most image diversity for the least amount of work 👍

Feeling ambitious and want to go for the whole thing? Jump in now and follow along with the Medium and Maximum Tracks simultaneously! The Medium Track will catch you up to all of the moods the Maximum Track has already covered, while the Maximum Track covers all of the moods that aren't in the Medium Track.

Come check it out, and maybe earn some Dreamwidth points while you're at it!

It's always fun to watch this challenge unfolding.

I still see your fancy rats fairly often. :D

I'm pretty excited about how many people are still participating this year 😃

Eeeee! Makes me wanna do some work on my pigeons (and get my clouds uploaded already)...

It shows that not only have you identified a popular topic (mood theme art) but also created a structure that meets many people's needs (tracks of different sizes).

Your pigeons are awesome and I'd love to see more of them. I don't think I've seen the clouds yet.

I have also seen the jellyfish set in use occasionally.

I think I may have also gotten better at getting the word out, and being able to offer Dreamwidth points to participants certainly doesn't hurt 😂

Clouds! I'd dearly love to get them live on the site for the next code push, but the only person who knows how to upload mood themes right now has other things going on as well and hasn't been able to train me yet 😅

As much as I love my Fancy Rats (and the clouds and the pigeons, unfinished though the last of them is), I'm really happy that the Jellyfish are available to give people more color options! I keep meaning to go in and edit them into various pride flags just for fun, but, well, there's all of the everything else I have to do, still 😂

That is an awesome set.

That's exactly where I've seen them -- blogs with a specific color palette where the jellyfish match one of those colors. \o/
