Queries on the upcoming Feb Sprite contest

It's mid-January and February would soon be around the corner.
I would like to ask the members of this forum on their theme suggestions for February SPRITE contest.
There will be a poll when there are enough suggestions made as deemed by the community.

Also do not forget the usual things like pixel size, color restrictions, special rules (if there are any), etc.
Please refer to the regular contest rules for this.

Well depending on the turnout of January's contest, we may need to extend it depending on how many entries that we get...

How about a redo your old sprite thingy(in the same style as before)? Or redesign any castlevania character (playable or not) in the SOTN/DS style?
I dunno. Or maybe we could do a "design an enemy" contest.

I haven't thought this through at all...but as the Month of love and romance (or whatever) maybe that could play a part in the theme somehow.

I don't really care one way or the other about this idea...it's just the first thing that came to mind.

Interesting enough, but the series has brought back oldschool enemies plenty of times. There's only so many times you can resprite a CV1 zombie.

It's not a bad idea, but the current music contest suggests that straight-up conversions don't garner much attention.

I agree with Drac9. This forum seems to love original works.
I'm still with my Succubus vote on PG rating and not M (I know everyone wants the M rated one, but we have to keep it PG) especially if there are no limits on pixel size.
What say you guys?
