After talking with @Hellblazer , @CatParty , and @PurpleMonkeyDishwasher ; I have decided to start a thread for a kiwifarms.net Photoshop/Illustrator/Animation Friday Contest. The Kiwifarms has a large talent pool and a contest like this helps bring out the creativity in all of us. SA used to do this a long time ago and like much of their site, they have let it go. 
Allowed Media:
Photoshop/Gimp/Bitmap, Illustrator/Vector, Animation/Flash/After Effects, CG Renderings via Garry's Mod/Maya/3ds Max, and Memes using common images to new funny themes.
Participants:
Any Kiwi Member who has access to the Off-Topic areas of the forum.
@HoloSkull , @Konstantinos , @Sigyn , @Alan Pardew , @Valiant ,and @Hunger Mythos have made great contributions to the media gallery/forum/landscape and are some of the many people I would be love to see involved in this.
Themes:
The themes can be very simple with a wide range of topics. Topics can include:
As per @CatParty 's suggestion - A special subforum in the art forum can be created for this with a new post created from a new subject each week chosen by the "winner" or "winners" of the contest from the previous week. This way you can add a poll into each new weekly thread for people to vote on winning entries once all submissions are made.
Prizes:
The prizes could be an achievement from @Null , bragging rights, and in some cases a very confused/annoyed Lolcow. In some cases the entries can be posted in the Lolcow thread linking your work to the Lolcow via search results.
Joint/Team Entries:
Also I am thinking there can be joint/team entries, too. Not every talented artist can come up with ideas themselves and not every funny person is technically skilled. Allowing people to make joint/team entries insures cooperation and can create some fun concepts. Also team entries brings in more people to participate as well. Also this promotes friendly competition and reduces infighting.
Current Contest:
I think we got this weeks first topic! SJW Magazine Covers and Media! Do your best to help Social Justice Warriors increase their awareness and Promote themselves!
All Entries must be in by 11:59 PM EST on Friday April 24, 2015.
Extra Points for being as angry as possible and reminding White CIS Males(the "worst" people on earth) to check their Privilege!
A poll for the winner will be posted at 06:00 AM EST on Saturday April 25, 2015.
Request for thoughts and suggestions:
I would like suggestions and ideas for topics. Thanks!!!
