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.

Bill Gates is 50(ish). The internet generation is sliding into middle age. So apart from Zimmer mainframes, what will geeks and nerds do when they get old? Illustrate....

Everyone knows Dave Gorman as the bloke who travelled around the world once to find people with the same name as him, and then again meeting Googlewhacks. But what if Dave's career had taken a different turn? What if Dave had ended up in Hollywood, cast in a variety of films?
The brief: Take movie posters and screenies of movies and replace key characters' heads with that of Dave Gorman. Why? I don't know. But it gives us something to do.

What will out-of-work presenters and comedians looking for a break pick to remember of the present day in a nostalgia show on in 10 years time? Remember, nothing meaningful in any way. This challenge would also be pretty interesting to come back and look at in 10 years time, like a time capsule, don't you think? I agree, it is a great idea.

At some point in your life, you've probably been accused of 'turning a phrase', but what does that even mean?

Originally I thought, 'If Hitler was gay', but I think that's an existing Channel 5 programme.

I think that there should be a national scheme for football fans to pick the new england manager and coach, i think that christian renaldo should get a oscar for acting, rooney should go into boxing or street fighting and anger management. so come on who do you think should be the new coach and england manager, David oleary he does not mess he would stand up for the squad, like he used to for leeds

Famous faces who got up late and forgot to perfect their trademark look. As an obvious example:

Not so much a frightening monster as a creepy sales assistant in Moss Bros. Can you do any better? (Yes.)

Bring the things that shaped your childhood up to date with too much gold and an abundance of rapping, from postman phat and bizzigles to polly pop-a-cap-in-yo-ass.

shades, eyeglasses, monocles, any hardware used on or around the eyes. Can we make them more exciting, innovative, useful, or just plain GlassCock?
It's a movie cliche that the "ugly duckling" takes off his/her specs, when he/she is transformed in to the Prom King/Queen. To which I say... BALLS! Four Eyes are better than Two!

If b3ta was a theme park, what would the rides look like?
The beano has one, so why not the b3ta newsletter?
CDCs, kittens, the quo, goatse. All could be made into a variety of bizarre rides/stalls etc.
An instant classic
I can already see 'the black hole'. *shudder*
