Looking for ideas for contests!

Do we really need another art contest though?

Having the ideas available is better than nothing. Avatar contests are a lot easier than most of the other art ones, too, because almost anyone can make avatars. The extra skill only comes in handy for going the extra mile, which doesn't always help when you're making something for generic usage.

Another art contest we haven't done yet but has already been on the waiting list I'll mention just because;

An ETL signature banner template.

 Technical Details

Similar to what Perion corner used to make, you'd plug in an IGN and get a banner you can use in your signature that includes your ETL info for whatever range you gave it. ie: southperry.net/ETLIMG.php?ign=bob&level=150 would show how long till bob would reach 150, with avatar, xp per day, time till 150 and a southperry watermark.

The background/template for that has to be designed from scratch still. The flood and rewriting of the ETL system has put that one on hold but the ETL system will be back again soon so it's time to reconsider whether that will be a good means of advertising and info or not.
