Sun Tzu

Something I have seen be successful in other forums is contests with prizes. I dont know how it would play out here. The ones I saw had like $50 prizes or whatever actually. It would not be cost effective for TFP itself to flip the prize bill so the different areas: writing, photochopping, etc could each be different contests. Whoever wanted to be an actual "contender" for winning would put in to a TFP prize kitty. Only those that paid an entry could actually have the work voted on. Any member of TFP however could vote by a certain date once, or however.

I dont know if this would be going in a different direction than what is desired here, however it seems like whenever someone asks for help on logos or themes with payment to the one they choose people come out of the woodwork. When Halx used to put up picutes for people to photochop he never posed it as a contest, but people started voting on their favorite anyway. A percentage from each Kitty could go back to upkeep costs of the forum.
