And I've ticked it to be ready to be reviewed now. If it gets approved, will we get the sticker?, and will you add us all to the Creators who participated in every monthly theme list? As for the monthly themes, I really enjoyed them! The monthly challenges were great and fun! I hope, one day, you'll continue with this. I'd be ready to create new things for future monthly themes.

They helped me get back into creating - I've uploaded 15 things in the last year, and before that I'd only uploaded one thing since 2010! I hope to continue creating even though the themes are over now, so fingers crossed I won't have another "5 year creating hiatus" any time soon! :-0

	Whenever you see a "Say Thanks" button show the creator you appreciate their work...click on it. You can also find more of my work at Leefish and Plumb Bob Keep

(And got my dad to let me borrow his old work laptop he never uses so I can play Sims and keep creating~) Whenever they start up again, I'll be excited to participate!

@lilmisssimsaddict Unfortunately, no you can't submit for the past themes. You can still upload items but we can't give you the stickers.

Want a specific style of house or community building? Why not take a look at my profile and see what I build and then come ask me to make it!

Although I don't create as much as I'd like to anymore, the themes did inspire me when I had time! Even when I didn't contribute, it was quite fun to see all the other folks uploads. I'll miss themes, although I do understand the mods have time constraints.
