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.

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:

!!!!!
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...
