Sounds like a great idea, but it might dissuade some from participating.

I hope not; though I'm beginning to wish I waited to suggest it until I had developed more skills... But a big point of rallies is to find fun ways to stretch yourself. The challenges stimulate you to learn/invent new ways of doing things.

Maybe an Image of the week. A select and secret group of judges. view all the images done in a week and select the best one or two. the winners get points for use in the store or items from vendors wanting to participate.
I would donate any of the items I have in the store for this.

This hit me when I saw one of Sostene's recent efforts: Name that movie! Memorable scenes, unforgettable flicks! Yuj never know. Might have a little traction. Live long and render

We did a movie themed Rally last year, you can see those images HERE (Starts on the 4th image) We also did a sports one right before the movie one you can see HERE (Starts with the 2nd image) Between the two I'd be more apt to do another sports weekend then Movie, but only because we JUST did a return of the "Name That Tune" Rally "Girls On Toilets" that might be a crappy rally I do like the bikes / cars idea for sure, but I wonder if "everyone has one or the other? I've always tried to make sure Rallies were "universal" as possible so people did not have to go buy stuff to be able to participate in the rallies. I deff like the idea of an "Image of the week" let me run the idea up the flagpole and see what others think about it! Teron

There's a number of cars on *deleted*, but they aren't all easy to deal with IMO. The larger-than-character size means that you need some pretty solid textures/surfaces to do them well, and that's not always going to happen with a freebie.
There are more freebie guns that are simple to work with, if "girls with guns" is a good idea. At least with the guns, the size of the objects means that you're not having to deal with uber detailed textures (unless some of the folks want to do some kind of insertion close-up or whatever).

Teron *deleted* is always your friend here... plenty of Poser native, or Poser importable vehicles there. And, if they can be imported into Poser, they can be imported into DAZ as well, even with some texture tweaks

Birdman on *deleted* has some pretty cool cars and other vehicles, all in 3ds format.
But just for laughs, if the point of the rallies is to stretch your capabilities a bit, here's an idea no one will touch: Switch the Orientation. If you do primarily straight scenes, you have to do one involving two guys in a sexual scene (Nope, not two girls, since that seems to be every straight guy's fantasy). If you primarily do gay ones, it has to be a het couple.
*That* would be a howler, I"m sure... LOL

LOL I used to get a bit of flack for rallies being "female only" so ever since I've tried to make them as gender neutral as possible, but I deff love the idea of "forcing" artists to swap genders... PS, The rallies are back on break as we are gearing up for our next Contest "Alien Invasion" but rest assured I've noted all of the suggs here and we will get to them when the weekend Rally returns again!

How about an Homage to a specific artist.
Like Royo or Frazetta, or Sorayama?
Not a copy, but an interpretation.
