The suggestion to encourage and help people improve their skills is an excellent suggestion, and exactly what staff has been discussing for 2025. We're looking at challenges that will focus more on style, skill, and techniques. The AOM's this year will not be looking to a specific gallery, but instead at best use of color, most engaging, most innovative use of technology, and so on. I'm not sure if we've posted it yet, if not, we will soon.

P.S. On a side note of moderation, let's not call each other's ideas idiotic, that's not productive. Present your counterargument in a constructive manner, and perhaps we'll arrive at a consensus that enhances the community.
