After looking at the past contests thought I would just post up a suggestion box so that i wouldn't have to come up with ideas or that i would come up with crappy ones with low participation.
Gonna let the suggestions come in for a week or so then will post up the new contest.

I wouldn't mind seeing another Artist challenge. I don't know how long ago it was, but having three weeks, each week having a sig and avvie combo with art from a specific artist. That was really cool, but that's just me.

Thank you so much for taking this on. Let me know if you need anything.
Just got to say, you've definitely earned distinction as an MTGS hero
Quote from Stardust »
Because he's the hero MTGS deserves, and the one it needs right now. So we'll global him. Because he can take it. Because he's not just our hero. He's a silent guardian, a watchful protector. An expired rascal.
Quote from LuckNorris »
ExpiredRascals you sir are a god-like hero.

Artist challenges were pretty cool. Set challenges would be nice as well. Keeping it to MTG for now might be best as the newer artists specialize mostly in that. If the participation is high enough and people want something more abstract/varied then itll be safe to work with.
I just hope people will participate this time around not let me and GR duke it out all the time.

I would agree with the "Keeping it to MTG art for now" is a good idea. I have participated in a number of these competitions and I don't even like doing the non mtg ones. Even something like the Cuthuluu theme was good, but just nothing too far out there.

Judging by the poll that we have up we really need to advertise the contest more.
I agree but I really cant do much other than bump the thread(or if someone would like to bump and comment on some of the work) and hope more people look at it.
I'm open to any ideas if you cant think of something better.

I wouldnt want to force people to put the link in their signatures but im sure it would help. I'll talk to rascals to see if he would want to do another link in a certain way.

I was thinking about future topics, how would you guys feel about doing some collaborative works for this contest in the future? maybe teams or something like that

I'm diggin both ideas guys, how would you guys feel about trying to use some altered art images from our wonderful art section? Maybe digital and norm altars, could have some interesting possibilities.

That could be interesting. I dont hang up as much as I should.
With the contest about to kick back in I suppose I will throw a suggestion into the box.
"Create a signature that encapsulates the mood or point of a Johny Cash song."
Obviously this could be any artist really but I felt going with a well known artist that has a wide base of music was a good direction to go if we were going to do anything music based. Ties to MTG in general are encouraged with this. Pick whatever song you want.
I'd love to participate in a Miyazaki/Studio Ghibli themed week; there's plenty of movies and art associated with the movies to choose from, too, which should make it relatively easy for everyone to find something they want to work with.
I think that keeping the themes mostly to fantasy based characters/games/whatever else would be favorable (at least by me). I know more recently before the contest started losing interest, there was a theme that was Cuthuluu. Or another based on Death; only using MTG art. Maybe doing something with other games as well? Make a sig and avvie combo based on Starcraft with ________ restrictions/guidelines. Just some other stuff to throw out there.

That would be fun. Or on a deck archetype (i.e. control, aggro, combo, etc)
