Some OT (birth announcements, etc.) here is fine, but give politics/religion it's own forum. I like the Poser AOM idea, but I'd like (no offense to any of the incredibly talented atrists who've made the Hot 20, as I can only dream of having your talent) to see a focus on artists who DON'T make it to the Hot 20 on a regular basis. It'd give people a chance to view the work of people who have more potential than experience. The FreeStuff provider idea is great - they're way under-appreciated. Anonymous contest entries would be a good idea, too.
