# Image Challenge Vote Hooray
This week's suggestions are now ripe for picking. They're as follows:

1. Jumpy orange shapes - see b3ta.com/board/10462799 for joyous details
2. Brand new old album art - often great albums get lumbered with crap artwork. Fix this by replacing it completely
3. If packaging pointed out the negative consequences of using the product - burgers with fat people on the wrappers, cars with dead children printed on their doors, computers adorned with photos of slums created by globalisation, etc.
4. Product placement in the news: if product placement were allowed in news broadcasts, which products would appear during the coverage of different kinds of events? Absorbent paper towels over Tsunami footage, etc.

And here's the votey-click device:

# Jumpy Orange Shapes
The only option that posts a real challenge. The others will be mostly TOAPs and faceswaps.

# this
the orange shapes one will fail horribly. I see it in my crystal balls.

I voted for the news one anyway, as it could be rather wrong and mirthsome.

# I think it is often the problem
that people will vote for which sounds the funniest, rather than which is the most inspiring.

Probably an extreme case of that this time!
