But I think we should post it in the thread if we are planning to illustrate a question, because if we don't, several people can make an illustration for the same question.
I would like to do 29 and 34.
Just a suggestion: Maybe we should make the open questions red?Because when I look at the list, I immediately look at the red questions. Or a different colour, that everyone knows it's not like the red questions before?

if you want to do my hug one that would be great. i had an idea of it being something like this i49.tinypic.com/wlznut.pngsad lemony at a desk, and someone else in the door, reaching out to him, or gesturing. i don't know how well that works with the snicketmail format, would it work with the person in the doorway first, then the question in the middle then sad lemony at the bottom? also if possible, same picture for the other hug question, but with an even sadder lemony ;D Okay, so I had a look at this, but it was a little difficult to illustrate, so instead I edited your image into Snicketmail format. It doesn't look too great to be honest, so if it's too out of place with the others/sloppy then that's fine too. Also, I'll probably have some more illustrations done this weekend.

I think I might not be able to do Charlie's. I tried some things out, but I failed. So if anyone had their eyes on that one, you can go ahead, I guess.

I'd like to have a look at #4 and #26 over the weekend, if no one has any objections. If anyone has any specific illustrations in mind, or would like me to try at something else, I can look at that, too.
