Stars and Clouds pictures - Once I've read that "sky is a clean sheet where God paints with
stars and clouds". In this contest you are asked to do
exactly this - create shapes, objects and messages (commercial or not) in the sky with
stars, galaxies, constellations or clouds. (Using paintings is allowed.)
St. Louis Named Most Dangerous U.S. City pictures -
[ "A surge in violence made St. Louis the most dangerous city in the country, leading a trend of violent crimes rising much faster in the Midwest than in the rest of nation, according to an annual list. St. Louis has been on the list of 10 most dangerous U.S. cities for years". ]
If you've never been to St. Louis, now is not a good time to visit. It received the title of most dangerous US city this year, thanks to all hard working criminals who work 24/7 to make the city famous. The center of St. Louis features 630-foot-tall stainless-steel arch - a monument to the early pioneers who came west with nothing but their wagons, their guns, and their crimes. Visitors may ride to the top of the arch, where, high above the Mississippi River, they may see the panorama of crimes in the city.
In this contest you are asked to "criminalize" any St. Louis related theme (city part, event, people, products, etc.), and feature it as a tourism advertisement for St. Louis.
