trust me, you're not too much of a noob. I entered a comp shortly after becoming a member. I was completely new to all this 3d stuff. Participating in the competitions have helped improve my skills greatly.
If you're interested in joining a comp, I encourage you to do so. If you enter, just completing an assignment is a big achievement.
Don't be satisfied with what you can do but rather strive to do the things you can't do!
Exceed Expectations!

Some good Ideas on here, I think that a poll should be posted a month in advance with the different Ideas and then the winners what the challenge is???

Will the next challenge start straight after this one? or will there be a bit of a delay to give everyone a bit of a rest etc ...
Cheers ...

another idea might be to design a useless product - it was a project that our design teachers used to set to get us thinking outside the box - the whole point is to make something that serves no purpose - so one guy invented a catapult type machine that held a giraffe's eyelids open while it fired contact lenses into its eyes... er...ha..ha.. just an idea.
benny k - don't let your lack of experience stop you from entering - the whole point is so that we all work on a similar theme and help each other out as we face the same problems. i've learnt a ton every time i entered one.
