So here's an idea, maybe the graphic design could be where the awards are actually on paper plates?

oo that sounds nice! and we should also add eva's idea of stickers around the plate as well! ^^

eva wrote:

and i also think we should have a little blurb at the beginning that mentions what else they did well other than the award to introduce it

yes i think a blurb would be wonderful, especially if it's used to describe/mention what they did excellent in! ^^

i will brainstorm some award ideas later tomorrow as well! <3

you're fine! I didn't mean to sound rude, I was just reminding everyone <3

You didn't sound rude at all lol. I'm panicking and that's why my text tone was like that. Sorry <3

okay so i did make a list of possible awards :>

snip

i''m loving the ideas for awards we can give out so far! the only suggestion i have- if i may, is we should maybe try and stay away from naming awards “Best…” or “Most…” as that could maybe imply a deficiency to other apps. just a thought!

that being said, i love your award ideas eva, but maybe we can rename them so it doesn't seem so much as picking out something for the “Best”.
here are my suggestions of what to call some of the awards that you said

Most Breathtaking Art –> Jaw-Dropping Visuals
Most Detailed Art –> Artistic Detail Award
Most Detailed Answers –> Thoughtful Detail Award
Most Concise Yet Effective Answers –> Short & Sweet Award
Most Creative Layout –> Creative Layout Award
Best Coding –> Coding Wizardry Award
Nerdiest Theme –> Nerdy in the Best Way Award
Best Forum Formatting –> Forum Flair Award
Best Music Choice –> Perfect Soundtrack Award
Most Speedrunned –> Speedy Speedrunner Award
So Complex It Broke My Computer <– i love this haha
Best Color Palette –> Delightful Palette Award
Neatest Design –> Polished Presentation Award
Most Chaotic Design –> Beautifully Chaotic Award

i know some of them sound pretty goofy, but i think my idea is to maybe just find alternative titles for the awards; eliminating the use of “best” and “most” in hopes of not creating any worse feelings <333 lmk what you guys think about this! i will work on brainstorming more ideas for awards tomorrow!

i love the idea of the blurb for each award! i think we definitely should note their efforts and give a little commentation hehe

and maybe if we decide to do a blurb it could relate to the award? like for ‘so complex it broke my brain’ we could do ‘this app was jam-packed with elements, down to the tiniest detail! we loved exploring each aspect of the designs and et cetera’

i like this idea! ^^

working on canva seems like what we decided, and that works great for me! i LOVE the idea of adding stickers to the plate designs, that'll be so cuteee i'm just wondering when the canva will be set up so we can start designing, not to rush or anything though!

overall i think we've got some really great ideas! this is going to be so awesome ehehe

I can’t say much (band bus) but I will take most speedrunned trust. I started on Tuesday :’P

hi guys :D I think since apps have closed it's time to get the canva up and running? and start looking at apps? I don't have the most time today (i'll be on a plane for most of the day) but I might be able to help <3

yes agreed! <3 is there anyone who wants to make the canva? if not i would be happy to create one! ^^
we have around 33 apps i believe, so we need around 33 awards.

our awards so far:

Jaw-Dropping Visuals
Artistic Detail Award
Thoughtful Detail Award
Short & Sweet Award
Creative Layout Award
Coding Wizardry Award
Nerdy in the Best Way Award
Forum Flair Award
Perfect Soundtrack Award
Speedy Speedrunner Award
So Complex It Broke My Computer
Delightful Palette Award
Polished Presentation Award
Beautifully Chaotic Award (from saffron + eva)

Silliest theme
Most creative layout
Nerdiest theme
Best music choice
Most personal theme
Neatest design
Best color palette
Best font choices
Most nostalgic theme
(from melody)

which means we need around 10 more awards if i counted correctly! <3

i have a few suggestions as well, such as:

well-researched award
the keyboard warrior
the novelist award

these are not the best ahahah so i'll definitely try to brainstorm more award ideas later! <3

I think maybe we can brainstorm some based off apps/app themes!! like I dunno a ‘reincarnation’ award for chuey's app because it didn't have a theme and then it was reborn?
i'd be happy to make the canva as well, but I don't have a strong preference!

yes that sounds wonderful! i'll try to think of more award ideas like that later ;D <3

I’ll try to pop in and help out in a bit!

hey y'all! sorry i've been a little mia lately~ school and mental health and stuff have been a little hectic
all of our awards are absolutely perfect *chef's kiss*
for the rest, maybe we could brainstorm them tailored to each app? i'll put together a list of apps and we can check them off periodically ;D

this all sounds good! also, do you guys want to add a final slide which says something like ‘most amazing app’, and the winner would be all of the apps? for a little sweet finale? <3 i will start looking at apps tomorrow, and brainstorm some more awards if we need them.

ee I love that idea!! it's so cute <33 i'll also look tomorrow and on the plane if I have wifi!!

Hi guys!! because of timezones I wasn't part of the discussion earlier, sorry about that! anyways, here I am now! here are my thoughts

ooh, I like that idea!
I'll update this post later with more award ideas but I have to get to something irl ^^

If you want me start designing, I could probably do that and start combing through apps.

Also, the most amazing app idea is so cute <3
