If we DO do a contest for this month, it would need to be something really simple that wouldn't take much thought to do, and only a few hours of vidding. Alternatively, we could still hold an event of some sort too. We'd like to do somethign this month, despite it being such a busy time, but it's obvious a full-fledged contest would be pretty tough to do.
So here's your chance. What do you want to do for the rest of this month? Any good, easy, doable ideas could, and probabaly will, be done!

So, any ideas?

A chalenge in which you make a vid that's only about 1:30 which by the end of it people are very confused Her'es that example I posted with it when I suggested this months ago.

Crossover was May, Ally.

Another idea: How to NOT do a vid. Quite simple to make a really crappy video in a couple hours . Then give a song used all the time (i.e. Dare You To Move) to use If that makes sense

My idea would be to do like a Lost Fashion Island thing. Plus sizes for Hurley, even oversized kids clothing for Walt. The always fashionable cargo pants for Kate, etc. etc.

Does anybody get what I'm saying? I think it'd be cool.

I know this is for July but I wanted to pitch this for September. Althoguh I'm sure you already know what you're doing.

That season 2 promo made by Karasmatik was really great. In celebration of the secon season premiere, this month's contest could be to make a season 2 "promo" using clips from Season 1.

That's it.

If it were a month sooner, then I would be agreeing with you. But by the end of September, Season 2 will already be in swing, so it kinda defeats the purpose of the whole contest, as I see it Plus, that vid was just so awesome that I highly doubt it can be improved, no matter how many people send in theirs! Heheh.... Bernard
