What contest do you want next?
What contest do you guys want next? [resolved]
So, the Halloween graphics contest is now long over, and I think it's time to start a new one. What kind you guys want? I've had the idea that a smiley contest could be fun, each entrant entering 5-10 smilies. Then, once the entrance period closes, the sets are compiled into a poll, and the site's users vote for which set they want added to the smiley banks. What doo you think? If you have a better idea, I'd love to hear it.
Raps out.

Hmm, I dunno... Smileys would be great but do they all have to be circles and do they have to all have big grins?

My understanding:
A smiley is a 16x16 image, which may or may not be animated. Since we have an admin (and a user) who is subject to seizures there should not be any rapidly flashing lights in it, but a slow color change works, and since we still have users under the age of 13 it should be kid friendly (but Nintendo is traditionally pretty kid-friendly anyway, isn't it?)
and are all smileys that we already have here...
Edit: 16x16 is not an absolute size, since some of them are bigger. But it is a practical limit for the database, and it is the limit that they were suggesting for submissions for CS3, and HP mentioned it as the limit they like to stick to at MTS.

Personally, smilies are easy to find online, and they're too small to let your creativity flow. I know it's in a few days, but we need Nintendo characters dressed in Turkey outfits.

WBN is right, smilies are kind of small, but thats why there will be multiple entries. Turkey costumes would be funny.

Hm. Perhaps another themed graphics contest? Christmas this time? Thanksgiving is just too close for people to get their entries in, unfortunately.

Hm, what about a "design a new mario enemy" contest? It'd have to be a true mario enemy, not like a Silent-Hill-meets-Saw enemy. What about that?

I like that too! But silent hill meets saw sound like my true calling
Also, I was thinking about it, if you do the smilie contest, it could be themed like, 25 smiles for 25 days of christmas or 13 smiles for 13 days of halloween, so that there is a larger number than just one, but it would be a set number. And since 25 is a lot, you could do like 4 weeks of christmas, meaning 4 smiles blah blah blah.

I was thinking 5 to 10 smilies. That way we could add to the individual bank the winner would go in when we have another contest like that.
i'll wait another day to see if anyone else has anything to say about the contest idea.

As WBN mentioned, smilies are easy to find on the internet. If we do a smiley contest we would have to be on our honor that we really are making our own and not downloading and adapting them.

I like the design a villain contest, but the idea of a holiday graphic is nice too! I'd suggest combining the two ideas, but that would be a bit too restrictive...

Sounds like that's the winner thus far. I'll hold off until after thanksgiving, but I'm going to start right after it.
