Hello there fellow theme enthusiasts, long time lurkers and random passersby! We are pleased to let you know we've got something new and exciting in store for both those curious about making themes for the first time and experienced theme designers looking for a challenge.
So without further ado we proudly announce the first ever monthly Telegram Theme Challenge!
At the start of every month, we will announce a new theme or topic to base a theme on. All you have to do to participate is to make a theme that fits that topic and submit it to @TelegramThemes with the hashtag #themechallenge.
We’ll publish the best submissions from that month on the channel in a special new Theme Catalogue that will be home to all the best submissions, as well as other curated collections of themes.
Even if your great new theme doesn’t fit the current challenge, you can naturally still submit it to @TelegramThemes using the hashtag #theme. The group is also a great place to get tips and ask for advice, and we will still keep publishing the best submissions to this channel on a regular basis.

September Theme Challenge
We thought we’d start the theme challenges off with something more seasonal — the autumn season to be specific. Show us what parts of autumn you like the most with your theme, whether that be the falling leaves, seasonal animals or what the season means to you in your part of the world.
Submit your theme to @TelegramThemes with the hashtag #themechallenge. The deadline for submissions is the 30th September at 23:59 GMT, and the best submissions will be showcased soon after.

October Theme Challenge
Following from last month’s challenge this one may seem a little predictable, but we simply couldn’t resist (plus we’re way too impatient to wait another year). This month’s challenge is Halloween! Oh yes! 👻
Spooky environments, spooky costumes, spooky candy, spooky creatures, SPOOKY EVERYTHING.
Submit your spoookiest theme to @TelegramThemes with the hashtag #themechallenge. The deadline for submissions is the 25th October at 23:59 GMT, and the best submissions will be showcased soon after. 👻

November Theme Challenge
No matter what side of the hemisphere you're on, November's rainy and stormy weather puts us in the mood for some quiet relaxation. So, to set aside the seasonal focus of the previous two months we've decided to make the Theme Challenge of this month on Meditation.
Instead of looking for themes that evoke a particular setting or object, consider this month's challenge to be specifically about the design of your theme. We're looking for themes that focus on clarity and that make use of colour in subtle ways, letting the elegance of the interface shine through.
Submit your theme to @TelegramThemes with the hashtag #themechallenge. The deadline for submissions is the 30th November at 23:59 GMT, and the best submissions will be showcased soon after.

It’s December already?! 😱

December Theme Challenge
It’s that time of year again, but nobody told us and there's no windows inside the Telegram Theme Basement to check. What we do know is that December brings with it many wonderful festivities, whether it be holidays like Christmas, New Year's Eve, Hannukah, Pancha Ganapati or the Winter Solstice. As such, we couldn’t possibly do without a festive theme challenge!
However you celebrate the month or whatever you enjoy most from it, we’d love to see it represented in a beautiful theme. Unlike previous challenges however, we will regularly post the best submissions throughout the month to ensure everyone is well equipped with festive themes.
As usual, submit your themes to @TelegramThemes with the hashtag #themechallenge. The deadline for submissions is the 31st December at 23:59 GMT.

January Theme Challenge
We've been thinking about food a lot in the Telegram Theme Basement recently. While we love cooking eggs in all their forms for breakfast, it seems our enthusiasm got the better of us and as such, we're no longer allowed to since "The Incident". How do you beat eggs anyway? They can be scrambled, poached, fried, boiled, made into omelettes...
We could really do with some inspiration though, so this month's theme challenge is Breakfast! Show us your most favourite and delicious breakfast foods in the form of a theme, you can even choose eggs if you want, no matter how jealous that will make us.
Submit your theme to @TelegramThemes with the hashtag #themechallenge. The deadline for submissions is the 31st January at 23:59 GMT, and the best submissions will be showcased soon after.

Telegram Theme Challenge
Theme challenges are a new, monthly event that will appear on both @AndroidThemes and @Themes, and are designed to challenge both first-time theme authors and veterans alike.
March Theme Challenge
We’ve been really getting into stargazing recently in the Telegram Theme Basement. One month later and it’s become a favourite hobby of ours next to coin collecting and talking to ghosts. We still can’t decide what planet is our favourite though, and we’ve been staring at them for a really long time. You see where we’re going with this right?…
This month’s theme challenge is Planets! Whether real or imagined, close-up or far away we want to see all kinds of celestial bodies represented as beautiful themes.
Submit your theme to @TelegramThemes with the hashtag #themechallenge. The deadline for submissions is the 31st March at 23:59 GMT, and the best submissions will be showcased soon after.
