Image Challenge suggestionsWe think a good challenge idea is like the opening line of a joke, say "If ads told the truth... Guinness would say 'It makes you fat, and your shit turn black.'"
Maybe you have other ideas.
We're going to leave this thread open, so feel free to add ideas at any time. BTW: Please use the "i like this" button. Your voting really helps the good ideas bubble-up, and the very best will be used in the Image Challenge itself.

The Little Mermaid inside a Boggle cube, inside a tumble-drierWhat would happen if you took all the words from Hans Christian Andersen's "The Little Mermaid", put them inside a Boggle cube and then put said Boggle cube into a tumble-drier for 15 minutes? Photoshop what the resulting storyline would be, ok?

Stuff that isn't usedIn the case of women it's excessive amounts of cushions, candles, pebbles, etc. Men? Tools and gadgets. Most of this stuff isn't used or maybe used once and then left to gather dust. Illustrate alternative uses for this clutter.

A New Flag, or things falling out the sky, you choose.There's been discussion about how a flag of the UK without Scotland in it would look www.bbc.co.uk/news/magazine-25205017 . With or without, given we can even print pictures on fabric now, perhaps the UK flag does need updating. What should it look like to reflect today's Britain?
Or, if we're feeling gross, what thing falling out of the sky and landing on another thing would make you laugh the most?
