If you don't know what specs are it means the size of the stage.

It's cool that you want to do this, but if you don't even know what specs are (and you're still missing some info) then you're probably not going to get many (if any) people to join.

Maybe you should find someone that's knowledgeable about this sort of stuff and get them on board. Then maybe other people will feel confident enough to spend time on a part.

Collab rules aren't really enforced anymore, but like I said... people aren't going to join if they know you're not capable of putting it all together. If you're just figuring out how to change the stage size now, how do you plan on putting multiple parts together?

Don't get me wrong! I'm not trying to stop you from doing this, I just think you need some more seasoned people involved. Have you asked @fornoreason ? He's done a few collabs in the past.

That's a broad subject, the theme is halloween but each member should do a specific thing like for example, person A does an animation about vampires, person B does one about Frankenstein, person C werewolves, D zombies and so on, then you could all put them together.
Make sure you all animate the same type of animation (comedy, horror, drama, whatever), it wouldn't make much sense if one animated comedy while another one animated horror. Try to talk about this a bit more and give out more details, don't go around saying "just animate anything as long as its halloween themed".

Here are some links that may help you:

Last years Halloween Collab - http://www.newgrounds.com/portal/view/628079

Last years Halloween Collab Forum Thread - http://www.newgrounds.com/bbs/topic/1351531/1

Must warn you though, collabs take a lot of effort to put together. Maybe consider doing an art collab instead? They take significantly less time and effort to make.
