I've tried to get this going before. Everyone thinks it's lame , but here goes again. I'd like to find a good, small non-profit organization, one that does something everyone, EVERYONE finds agreeable, one that is in poor shape graphics wise, and adopt them, make 'em big through our efforts.

Easy!
All we need to do is submit some plain white source pics WITH a theme written on the plain white background. If BTVS approves them to go into the queue, then we can vote on them like any other source pic.
Simple eh?

Buck write up some themes that would interest you or you think would interest the crowd here. I think an illusion theme would be cool.

It doesn't sound lame. An organization I love, respect, and admire is the Carnegie Hero Fund Commission. They have a small staff of investigators working out of a small office in Pittsburgh. They award medals in recognition of Heroism--you know, people risking their lives to save others. They sometimes provide cash to needy heroes or to the families of heroes who lay down their lives for others. They don't make a big deal out of their activities, but they take the work very seriously. I think it is a noble thing they do, imho. I'd love to try chopping some of the acts of selfless courage described in their annals. Who could find what they do disagreeable? Fwiw.

You need an overhead projector....and a thermal transparency of a blackline master....of anything. Project it onto the wall....and paint within the lines. Too easy!

You know what, I have been out of the loop for a few weeks and well I don't understand you Guys N Gals. Why cant we this and why cant we that . Well why cant you.....
GET OFF YA ASSES AND BLOODY DO IT.
If you don't need site approval then just do it. I started the Profiles by just doing it, sorting it out and bang away they went and now its a permanent part of the site. You think chop the chopper was approved and voted and talked and wined and dinned, shit no I just did it. Chop like a Viking day...yep once again just did it, tips n tricks threads, congrats thread, 2008 scavhunt, (Man that was some great work from Eve Ron and Splodge) man you guys either love to winge and whine but no one wants to do it.
SO
Instead of say what this place needs or why cant we have or why don't we...
SHUT THE F**K UP AND DO IT

Thanks Blue for the input.
I am trying to sort out what people want the most here.. like triage-ing the bleeds/needs then organizing INTO TEAMS what needs to be done. Any volunteers are needed ...... now don't everybody pm me at once.. I expect some help on this.
and don't be afraid to suggest what you want here for fear you'll be corralled into work. I don't work the whip too good.

I hope Wiz you meant find the person who has the ability not take a crash course in programming. lol you must realize that the site would be so so messed up it would cure any gripes about the current site. People would be so happy to have the old site up and running after I got hold of the server/password/and mucked up the site really good... don't wish that OR is that the ANSWER?
