Going to other parts of the site and advertising our show is a frickin good idea if you ask me. Those folks should be the one's involved in picking the contest winner and we need to get them over here anyway. So that means I vote for the contest too. I think making it clear that you CAN submit an entry for the theme contest, OR just submit art to the show without entering the contest would be cool, sort of a two for one deal, is a good idea.
And I was having another idea.... you know cause polling is fun or something. Anyway, have a poll something to the effect of: would you be interested in any or several of the following ... traditional hot rods, customs, resto, pro-touring muscle (duh), second gen, late model, maybe some pro racing themed stuff too (vintage, current, Le Mans type action perhaps? SCCA?). Maybe get a feel for what people are interested in seeing beyond PT stuff to get not only more artists but more spectators too. And if no one chimes in on any of this, feel free to pretend like I'm not here.
