Ladies and germs! It has been over a month since I have received any submissions!

It's okay though, things got really hectic on my end to the point where my computer wasn't actually turned on for about a week and a half

But I'd like to hear from you all anyways! Is this still something people are interested in? Comments or suggestions? I've also been tossing about the idea of making the pack a bit smaller and released earlier. What do you think?

Either way, since I finally have time, I'll be working on my second file, my second chart for BBQ and a friggin' cdtitle for DDRNGGin that I said I would do but have put off like a jerk

sorry bro, I'll have it done soon. I'm also going to make a new new banner for the pack... I'm not sure I like this one so much.

It's alright, Kraezymann. I understand. I've been putting off another chart I am working on for this pack. Also, making a new banner for the pack is a great idea.

I'm finally one chart away from Magnolia being done.

Also I just noticed this, but what the hell is the text on the two of the banner image?

I don't think that's text.

Didn't mean it as "man this looks bad" just I noticed it last night while I was writing a post and I was like "Huh, never noticed that before."

Re: Stepping Stones 2 [Submissions open!]

Nah man, I got ya

I updated the original, and made some extras in case anyone wants a look at something different. What do you guys think?

Also updated first post (slightly), received 2 files and did a cdtitle for DDRNGGin! (I'll PM it bro)

From top to bottom:
1. The first one has font that I find is too thin. The picture is also taking the pack's name a little too literally.
2. I figure this second one is the "plainest" of the bunch. Beige to white colors, a somewhat visually electric font but is easily visible. A little too simple?
3. Maybe the most colorful of the four banners but honestly looks like the most similar to the banner style of other packs that have been made before...grungy font, high-tech, colorful bg. I would like something different.
4. I like the bg very much of this last banner, with the left hand space relatively devoid of the bg objects in place of the "stepping stones" text. The text seems a bit bright, and the "2" seems too far away and not really connected. It's like calling the pack "Stepping Stones........2." But I prefer this banner the most, perhaps with slight modifications.

Re: Stepping Stones 2 [Submissions open!]

I really liked the original, just a different font. The one above is too thin though.

While I agree with this, I also don't think taking it literally is a bad thing. I think it makes for a solid banner if you don't feel like being all weird with it and it emphasizes the pack's theme. Even if a little blunt about it.

Re: Stepping Stones 2 [Submissions open!]

I have sent in a hard pad chart for this pack.
The main difficulty is Challenge (Difficulty rating still in accordance to the DDR X scale).
I will try to add more difficulties whenever I have additional time.

Re: Stepping Stones 2 [Submissions open!]

Added a review, changed the deadline criteria, finished a cdtitle for DDRNGGin (PM'd you!) and updated the banner that bmah liked:

Better? I still like the updated original more. It is a little closer to the banner for the first pack, albeit without the fancy effects

Also, I'm going to do my best to be more in depth with my reviews. Please bare with me! It's my first time with all this.
