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.

Re-design Record Sleeves so they depict their titles.The rules:
1. No text.
2. Must be square (like record sleeves are).
3. Can be obvious or cryptic.
4. You can use un-shopped photos - but only if you took the photo yourself.
Some examples:
Single 1967:
Album 2003:
These were done quickly, and aren't great. I'm sure all you b3tans/b3tards can do better!

Crap & Boring Video GamesWhat if the world of Video Gaming reflected boring old real life?
What about:

B3ta BrotherCan someone photoshop the crap out of Big Brother in order to make it interesting enough to watch.
What if Big Brother was actually like the B3ta boards?

Shopped Ghost Images.
As the QOTW is about the supernatural, how about a tie-up for the image challenge?
Think about it. Harnessing the 'shoppers to produce incredibly realistic images of ghosts/ufos etc.
I bet you a tenner that they'll be stolen within a month and touted as genuine photos of spirits. Some will eventually make the 'papers.
Then we can laugh ourselves sick....
Cheers
