# Image Challenge: the vote is HERE
Your options follow:

1. Uses for the space shuttle - now that NASA has pulled the plug on the shuttle what would it be used for?

2. Tributes to dead rockstars. Or rockstars you wish were dead.

3. One word challenge: sausages

4. Fake adverts, or the "we can do better" challenge: see www.artbelow.org.uk/ab/Gallery.action?galleryId=84 - whether you submit your submissions to their competition is up to you, but there's a nice prize involved.

And the magic votey widget:
