Holy crap! 1 more day!

Okay.
1 more day until it begins.

My question is whether the theme is announced at 12:00am PM or Eastern Time or when!

Anyone know?
Dylan?

I looked at the previous challenge submissions so I think I have a gist of what each challenge topic was, but just so that I can have an idea, can anyone post the directions or challenge topics from previous contests?

I was just curious as to how specific or general the topics were and the elbow room allotted for interpretations.

Thanks.

I'll probably post the theme tomorrow morning around 8am PST. Or whenever I feel like it. :)

As for the other themes... I went back and checked:

Trapped
Secrets
Cameras
Holiday spirit (I think)
Reflection

And I just decided what DVC6 will be!

Given the latest climatology, the theme is probably HEAT (or any variant thereof)!

All of us people on the West Coast have to take a pledge not to look at the theme until 11 a.m.--- but wait a minute, what about Europeans, oh, and the poor Australians, oh my...

I guess that the price they pay for being ahead of us.....
