@Firn: I totally understand educating yourself first, it's cool. And you learn new interesting stuff

I think you could ask users, if you know some who belong to the cultures you'd be inspired by. I can try helping with Indian stuff, I've studies Indian language (Hindi) & the northern culture. Though I only know bits of the southern parts of India. If any
And now about Bon's racoon/tanuki items: YES please! QuQ Just today I even thought of suggesting a racoon-knuff but I have no idea where to suggest it xD But yes, a racoon pet at least would be awesome, in Cool or Cold gray, and maybe colors like Topaz, Sand Brown... I kind of want to see it in Indigo XD Racoons are so cute *-* Maybe in Lavender? Soft Blue also seems like a good color for a coon. Oh, and Gray White/Cream white, so it would look albino!
Could be a monthly item ^^
@Bon: I know I've suggested recolors (as well as others have) of minisets, and minisets of MTs and I've also suggested knuffel minisets, and no one ever told me to not do it here, so I assume it's allowed. They are avi items after all

I think I've suggested just about everything XD
As for GotQs, I've been lately thinking about Angelica Hair Extensions

Could be nice.
I've been also thinking about how to include some of the less popular colors into more items. So I played a little in the DAC, and this is what I came up with:
I know some of the combinations already exist, but I wanted to emphasize that they are nice combinations that we could see more of :3
Also noticed Cream white goes well with just about any color xD
Wow, making each avatar with just a different wig, without the possibility to save an already saved avi as a new one is a bummer x.x
