Image Challenge suggestions
We 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.

Ludicrously aggressive technical drawings
Inspired by the QoTW entry describing a volcano lair which reminded me of sketches I used to make when I was at school.
Sketch a cross section of your evil lair of doom! Be it a space station, volcano lair, floating fortress or mega-tank. Booby traps, oversize artillery, planes, armouries, lasers and cannons that fire sharks are all encouraged.

Job Swap Shop
Its the credit crunch, and desperate times lead to desperate measures. With record unemployment there must be alot of people in jobs that they are not really 'designed' for.
Shop the Job Swaps.

typos
simple as that. Not typos you have seen necesarily, but simply as a subject matter.
Drop a letter, add a letter, or swap two letters.

Bennett from Commando.
We thought he was dead....... we thought wrong! When he isn't trying to kill his old friends, Bennett is always getting caught in sticky scrapes and having adventures.

Things instead of hair
Hair's boring, lets start a new trend. Shop replacements to hair.
Celebrity photoshops with ducks on heads, useful attachments like phone masts, astroturf for that luscious fresh cut lawn look. go on, you know you want to.
And don't feel restricted by humans or head hair.

Inappropriate addages
I think everyone has been told, as a child, old wives tales by parents or elderly relatives: If the wind changes you'll stay like that, place a piece of wedding cake under your pillow and you'll dream of your future spouse or my personal favourite by a completely doolally elderly aunt, 'Hang willow branches at your front door to keep the Gypos away.'
Create you own inappropriate saying and photoshop it in action.

This would make a good image challenge in my opinion.

Famous landmarks 'enhanced' by advertising...
I visited venice last month as millions and millions of others will this summer. As everyone knows one of THE sights is 'the bridge of sighs' - we went to dfind it and we're more than a little perturbed by the end of the day not to have seen it. Then by a process of elimination I worked out where it was and why we hadn't noticed it...
Here's the pictures:
farm3.static.flickr.com/2458/3780119225_73578d9e0a.jpg
farm4.static.flickr.com/3553/3780928806_0f09aac558.jpg
!!!!!
So here is one of the most famous landmarks in the world, now reduced a small part of a huge advertising hoarding for sospiri. Once I'd got over the shock at this travesty my next thought was "I have to post this to b3ta - what a great image compo!":
Which other famous landmarks of the world could be similarly 'enhanced' with advertising hoardings?
I'm thinking the Grand Canyon with a golden arches bridge across it filled with McD ackaging, downtown Baghdad with US Army advertising...

LOST - The Ending
The series you either love or hate ends next year with the secrets of 'The Island' apparently revealed. So, before anything starts leaking onto the net about what happens, open up photoshop and show us what YOU think it all means; The Numbers, The Smoke Monster and possible endings for the show/characters, all in b3ta style, of course.

Style your garage door. I'm sure we could do better than these guys
OK, take a look at style-your-garage.com/ - a site thats been featured in the news this week.
They offer garage door replacements with 'amusing' scenes on the front.
I am more than sure that B3TA members could do _much_ better than their sample designs.
