It just crossed my mind, but what happens if a challenge creator just likes drops off the face of the planet and never picks a winner? Are those of us who entered the challenge just doomed to wonder what could have been? Is there any kind of deadline to pick a winner? And if not, what happens if a winner never ends up getting picked? Just wanted to know. ^.^

Or how about a page where we can see all the challenges at once? That way one doesn't have to go to words, then art, then wallpaper, etc. It can be an option to go to from any challenge page maybe? Or maybe a portal so people who want to do challenges can subscribe and they'll be notified whenever a new challenge is submitted? ohohoh, or maybe in the backroom next to the 'quick submit' there can be a 'challenge' with a drop down of the different categories?
It would also be nice to be notified when you have a challenge and someone submits to it XD And another thing, the option to disqualify works that do not pertain to the challenge? It hasn't really happened to me yet, but someone had a ecard challenge for ToA funny cards, and a few people submitted a funny card that was not ToA--kinda like they just want the silver metal or something you know?
Actually, since new comments and replies are on the same page, you could merge them into one line that says new comments/replies and use the other line for the challenges. That would help avoid cluttering things up even more.
Eh, the backroom's getting a little crowded, what with all those new doodads on there.
I'd suggest a "recent challenges" section right above the latest works on every page for fanworks. List about 3-5 of 'em on there, and let them catch peoples' eyes.

How about a drop down box or something. Or replace it with the invite

I like Ace's idea, find some way of putting them on the front page, maybe connected to each section.

I kinda agree with Ace's idea. Find some way to list latest challenges on the front page.

Could there be a way to subscribe to challenges in any way?

Replace the ad links on worlds with the challenge ads.
Then you just have to find a better place to put the ad links.
