In past NANY events we have focused on celebrating those coders who have participated.  I received a birdgram from the site mascot Cody today which informed me that this year he will personally be conducting attacks on all coders who hang out at DC who do not participate.  So if you know how to code, and hang out at DC, I strongly encourage you to participate.

I've heard that you DC bosses have established a pecking order but that is ridiculous!

I have an idea for a new NANY project... I hope I´ll have enough time to make it.

So does this have to be a completely new program, or can it be an updated version of an existing program?

In the past, it has been a program you've written that hasn't been released before.

can't be a simple update, BUT if you do like a major almost-complete rewrite of an existing app, that has been allowed.
new plugins/addons are also allowed.

Here's a possible idea: Create a free alternative (I have tried the existing ones, they are not up to the mark) to PS Tray Factory.

I have been thinking about an idea to code for over a year; in fact, I was thinking of doing it for NANY '09, but I was hoping to market it.  Funny thing, I was never able to get the ideas on paper, but since I decided to go the NANY route my design ideas have come fluidly.  I even have a basic flowchart in progress! 

I guess I will have to submit to the cosmic natural order of things and create my "Garden Social Club" for NANY 2010!  Stay tuned!
