The Halloween Fashion Show was a cool little community project where a lot of DD creators participated. They submitted their characters as models and then dressed them up to do a Halloween fashion show. I love looking at the creativity on show here and the enthusiasm of the creators to ...

I kid, I just like the gif. But I do prefer prequels.
When are sequels and prequels great to do? What makes a great sequel or prequel?
