Maybe if you turn in your entries past the deadline, you'll prove how 'in theme' you can really be...

Good luck everyone!

Girl Power? I'd have thought the Mister in Mister Monkey would indicate he's a dude...

Love the theme for this round, very cool.

Very cool theme. I think I have my idea. No cute-off this time around.

Girl Power? I'd have thought the Mister in Mister Monkey would indicate he's a dude...
