The thread is designed from a professional point of view to encourage people of all skill levels to tackle a design brief. It is up to the community to make it work by adding their contribution, be it a filter, or a full redesign. It's based around the entire community to pull together and work on an ongoing project to ecourage flair, creativity and imagination from the community.

There is NEVER an excuse to say something lacks imagination - in this project it's down to the imagination of the community. It is a true test of your design ability. Designers don't design what they want to design 24/7 so it's up to them to practise turning something from someone else into something what they consider visually better and creativitly better. If you find this thread lacks imagination is because you lack the imagination and effort to turn it into something you find appealing.

This thread is tailormade for a graphics community believe it or not and it's perfect for preparing designers for tackling briefs of all natures. If you spent time actually using your imagination to contribute instead of bickering the thread may of actually taken off.
