Aw man, thanks everyone for the votes! Now what

I was thinking a DIY contest. Post pics of the DIY process, then a fit with the DIY piece? How does that sound? Anyone have any different ideas? Regardless I don't think I'll be able to start the contest until Wednesday, as I'm in the middle of finals right now.

Maybe just inluding a DIY'd item? Dunno how many people are going to be down for starting something new/trying to find old photos, etc. And you'll have to define "DIY." Otherwise good.

Is the next challenge up? We have some pretty hefty gift certificates to give to the winner of the next 4 (at www.other-shop.com)

Cheers,

Fok.
For real?

The two ideas I had for DIY-projects just got much more interesting

Congrats on a much deserved win to Spacepope!!

DIY challenge is good idea. I've been meaning to get a vintage M-65 or two and attempt a homebrew Needles rebuild type thing and maybe overdye it while I'm at it. I'm unlikely to get my **** together anytime soon though.

Streetwear suits and blazers challenge would be awesome too at some point.

Protagonist idea is awesome but dangerous, crossing over into the territory of costume like that. Wouldn't want slavish imitation to be the goal now, would we? Something like the "streetwear blazers" challenge might have a little more room in it for personal expression. Ultimately it's on you, though. Prepare yourself for the consequences.

DIY challenge seems like a very high barrier to entry, honestly. Even moreso than wearing a dress.

PROTAGONIST CHALLENGE?

Could be very cool, though I think the amount of contenders who have a fair chance to win would heavily decrease compared to DIY-challenge
