New Contest Ideas?, Bring 'em on!

Hey everybody!
As you can probably tell, the S-H forums haven't been extremely active lately, so I was thinking maybe it was time for a new contest of some sort. But here's the problem: what should it be about?
That's where you guys come in. Do any of you have an idea for a contest of some kind to spice up the forums? If you do, just post them here and the moderating team will review them and see what we think.
Thanks!

i've found that the forum has been well.. DEAD lately .

maybe a theme contest? like, "sizzlin summer sass" or something no idea but it should include new forum colors, a display picture and signature, and maybe a SH sign or fan sign? no idea just a thought off of the top of my head!

I think a best fan sign contest would be pretty fun

Awesome ideas, both of you!
I really like the "best fan sign" idea. Perhaps we'll go with that. Keep checking back!

yeah, best fan sign sounds fun!

i agree!

p.s what's going to be the prize?

I'm not sure. I'll have to talk with Heather about that. Keep checking back for updates, and be sure to get thinking about ideas for your fansigns!

I like the ideas, guys I'm actually right now making new graphics for the forum, as S-H is newly up and running, so it'd be nice to renovate here too

WHen I get this all fixed up here, I'll head back to this place, clean it up some, and get some contests on the go! I have a couple things in mind

Whee! Sounds great, Heather!

yay! im excited.

Sweet...

Haha, stay alert, guys. Heather and I are both busy with work at the moment (and Christina, the other moderator, is busy being a world traveller...haha), so we don't have quite as much time for the forums as we'd like. I'm sure we'll get a whole bunch of fun stuff on the go very soon, though, so keep your eyes peeled!

Hey... it's the summer so I'm sure a lot of people are busy Don't rush just for our sakes!

Thanks Katie!

Not to mention being busy as a complete slacker, Sarah XD hahah.

I have a few contest ideas from a Horseland forum that I'm apart of.
- photography contest (bi-weekly, maybe; different themes?; possibly different contests for horses, other animals, and miscellaneous themes)
- best manipulations (given photo(s) to work with, person has to create "personalized" photo/blend/something)
- caption contest
- Referral contest to get more new, active members. This could be an ongoing thing.. Also could be spin-offs (person with most referrals over a period of time wins something)
- guess that thing (picture posted of something by person in charge of contest; other people have to guess what it is)
- guess that breed (similar to guess that thing.. pretty straight-forward)

Just suggestions. I would be more than willing to run the photography contest(s) XD
