I'm with the 2 image challenges/week suggestion.New ones always seem to give /board a kick.
That said, hopefully the Twitter feed will help both remind people the site exists, and also make them realise that the place is good to launch projects and pictures. A pic being tweeted by that gives people's work more exposure than they are likely to get by just tweeting it on their own account.

I think a large number of old folk would fly back if the image challenge had the occasional prize like in the old days nothing like greed to motivate :D
Obviously you'd be banned from entering to make it fair ;)

I actually think points might work better than prizes.Let people know how many likes they have amassed over their stay here, bonus points for fp, easter eggs like a gayshift badge for posting at 3am.

This is a massively good ideaI demand points for my overweight gifs, poor links and bad attempts at humour.

I not so sure about that..I used to do a bit of Photochopping in the Photoshop threads on Fark.com in the States, but they had a points system and that was the death of it.
A lot of wankers started taking it WAY too seriously, cliques tried to rig the points, and no-talent tossers spent all their time vote whoring with memes and in jokes.
Eventually I just got sick of it and walked away.
b3ta doesn't have points and it's all pretty informal and laissez faire, which is good.
Prizes would be fun and maybe 2 challenges a week would be OK though.

Brian is rightI have changed my mind. Prizes would be cool. I would try harder if I could win a cup signed by Rob in marker pen.
