Hi Brianna,

itīs not the money, Iīm wondering what going on with the project

itself? No other round, the first round was closed before I could

asigned next illustration and so on. Isīt still alive?

I think it is safe to say that it won't continue in its current format
(how Round 1 was conducted). It is too time intensive to be done
properly, and having it done poorly would not benefit anyone IMO.

To explain a bit, I consider "done properly" to include
* evaluating suggestions
** for worthiness
** for suitability as illustration
** for availability of third party references
* finding self-suggestions when needed
* conducting moderately thorough check to make sure no free image
seems to exist yet
* describing the request sufficiently so that an illustrator has
enough information to understand what the request is for
* reviewing submissions, including
** checking against reliable third party references
** checking for basic SVG features (text as text, good colour contrasts)

So the question of "what next" is a bit up in the air. It's perhaps
possible that the scope of the project might be able to shift a bit,
although this is not certain. So I would say, if you have some
interesting idea about how to conduct a project like this, feel free
to the idea forward now.

cheers
Brianna
