A couple of themes that I'm into are Gothic, Victorian, and/or any era specific concepts. (medieval, renaissance, edwardian, colonial, 60's, etc) I'm also into all kinds of music, so if you picked a type of music as a theme, I'd be good with that too. I'm pretty easy to please.

anything wild and crazy would be great!

I've never done this, but I wanna try. As far as themes for me, anything wild and crazy is fine by me! The weirder the better!

since we are suspose to choose themes i will go with a fairy, an alian, or something wild and fun.

if anybody needs any tips or techniques, just lemme know in a private message and I'll send you some info. I've got about a ton of magazines and have been altering Barbie's and making Dollfies for a while. I'd be more than happy to help out.

Whistles I sure got a lot of messages!!! I'll start posting some links to tutorials tonight when I get home. I'm going to try to put some images from magazines up on my flickr when I get home from work. If there's any specific concepts that you guys are thinking you'd like to know about, let me know. (Specific hair styles, painting styles) I can either make a tutorial, or find one.

Egads! I forgot this part; wild and crazy is the best or alien or half barbie half animal ... grin. I want to love the doll I hate! LOL

I would like to give my partner the option to make what they would like. You can check out my profile for ideas. Make something unusal,unique,etc.

Oh, hehe, V41dmb, I'm into much the same, if you want to give that a shot for the one you're making me. ^^ I guess I wasn't really being creative when I put in my themes before. ^^
