Here's an idea.
I put a robot in the attachment (Say, a Havok) and whoever skins the chassis best wins.
There is no prize, just glory.
What do you think?

I suppose this could work. The Photoshop guys would probably be placed quite highly.

^That is kinda right.. I see what your getting at but if we allow someone to make a voting tournament outside the ruleset then you know everyone will make one.. same as AI packs last month.
So toss about the idea and have fun discussing it but dont go running off and making one for now..
