Valentine Hearts...?

DU Valentine Hearts will return soon for 2016, correct?



(I need to re-up for the year and would like to bank a supply of hearts to pass around...)

Maybe DU could do a theme for each month (whenever anyone re-ups, donates or joins):

January - Snowflakes
February - Hearts
March - Shamrocks
April - Umbrellas
May - Flowers
June - Green Trees
July - Firework(s)
August - Beach Umbrellas
September - Fall Colored Leaf (preferably maple)
October - Jack O Lanterns
November - Turkeys
December - Snowman/Snowpersons

That way DU'ers could share happy vibes all year long.

Just a thought.

We will probably start on Sunday or Monday.

I like you ideas for other months. Who knows...

...maybe not every month, but once a quarter or on the more significant holidays.

Is there an official DU inauguration date?

maybe some DUers would like to purchase hearts in Feb. but for one reason or another can't afford it then.

...by allowing newbies to have "hearts" to give out as soon as they join (paid newbies) would be an easy way to increase the feelings of being invested & included.

Plus people might start to associate with the symbol of the month they joined, like birth dates.
