Creatures Caves

Dear fellow Community Members,

A few days ago I had a wonderful idea for a community metaroom project that will allow anyone to participate. No matter your skill, nationality, gender, age or BMI, you can help!
Well, you kinda need a scanner or digital camera. And internet access. And a computer.

The Idea:
Everyone draws simple doodles on a piece of paper, scans them and sends them to yours truly. I will then cut these up in Photoshop and puzzle them together into a metaroom. With some luck, the room will look like a wonderful collage of the entire community. Plants, critters, food and toys will also be drawn by all of you. For now, all coding will be done by me.

What should I do?
Get started, of course! To get things going, we'll need scenery doodles. This post will get updated as the project wombles along.

Oh, ok. Be more specific?
We'll have to have some guidelines to keep the chaos within limits:
- Use crayons, pencils or coloured pencils only. No digital art programs like paint or photoshop.
- Use Creatures perspective: Objects are seen from the front or side, hardly ever at an angle.
- No heavy shadows or lighting
- Use white paper to draw on. Paper with lines or squares on it is fine as long as they're a light colour.
- No punch holes in the paper.
- Don't draw too big, if I have to resize it'll look terrible.
- If you add text, faces or funny shapes to random objects, it'll be less likely to be included. It's no fun if every rock looks like a Easter Island head, but one or two funny things won't hurt.

So what should I draw?
Check the bottom of this post to find the list of currently needed doodles, which are needed most and which have already been completed.

Done! Now what?
Send your doodles to
johan(curly 'a' thingy)coencologne(dot)be
in .png or .jpg format. If the image is small, .bmp is fine too. Be sure to include your community name, but try to avoid using an email address with your real name in it. Internet safety and all.
A safer way would be to upload it to an image sharing site and PM the link to me.
Don't upload it to a public place like the CC gallery, since it'll be more fun if the first screenshots of the room will be a surprise.

Suggested sites:
Imageshack
Tinypic
PicYes

Will I be credited?
Yes and no. It's a community project, so everyone is equally important. Everyone who submits something will have their name included in the readme, even if your doodle doesn't make it in. I won't say who made which doodle though. Copyright issues and stuff are totally ignored. I won't use your images for anything but this room, and won't sell it or anything. Deal? Deal.

Is there any other way I can help?
You'll only be credited for submitting doodles. But I do need someone to list a few handy image sharing sites so I can add them to this post. Spreading the word is also awesome. And you can always get your brothers and sisters and friends to help out, or secretly cut the doodles from their schoolbooks.
Oh, and spell-check this post for me. Thanks.

That's it?
That's it. I'll update this post as things progress.

CURRENTLY NEEDED DOODLES:
1st Mission: Scenery
COMPLETED!

2nd Mission: Fruit & Berries
Ok, this should be a very fun mission! Now that the room has trees and bushes, we will need fruit and berries to grow on them! But to make this easy to code, the doodles must be drawn according to the following rules:

Fruit:
Each piece of fruit will need 3 images, see the images of the Square Root apples for reference:
Fresh fruit: This fruit is hanging from a tree or has just fallen down.

Bitten fruit: A big bite has been taken out, about half of the fruit must be missing.

Rotten fruit: A pudgy rotten mess. You should not be able to tell if it has even been bitten or not.

As for the kinds of fruit... Go wild! Try to avoid common fruits like pears or apples, or fruit that grows in bunches like bananas. If you've ever played Neopets, think Gadgadsbogen! Fruit with odd shapes, strange spots, stripes,... As if it's from another planet. Fruit may have some leaves attached to the stem, but nothing too big.

Seeds & Berries:
Berries and seeds are bite-sized, so they only need a single image. Tiny triangles, circles, squares, stars,... The berries will grow on the bushes and will provide a dash of colour to the lower parts of the forest, so make sure they're bright and shiny! The seeds will pop from fruit that rots or gets bitten, they'll be mostly dark and brown or yellow in colour. Berries are allowed to have a single tiny leaf attached to them, if that looks cute enough.

Blossoms:
These will be what the fruits grow from. But! To shake things up a bit, which fruit grows from which blossom will be a mystery! The flowers will appear on a tree, and will change into a fruit drawn by someone else as soon as they are ready. Each flower must be looking directly at the screen, as you can see on the Square Root flower image I include below. This is to avoid a group of flowers looking silly if they all point the same direction. Berries will not grow from flowers.

Super-Secret Side Mission: X marks the spot!
The Scribble Metaroom still needs a spot on the map! I don't have a lot of experience with making metarooms that actually get released to the public, so I'm not very up-to-date with where current metarooms are located, and which spot would be safe. Any help with this would be greatly appreciated. The current dimensions of the room are 1600x600
