Jesse Lee,

The original WWP was just that - we all shot on the same day, whatever 
we wanted, and that was the theme.

The idea of themes is to challenge and stimulate the participants, and 
also to differentiate each event. This helps in publicity and gets us 
links to each event, not just to the overall WWP.
