Here be where you can put your images, aaaarh. :pirate:
These are my contributions. I know EE would love at least one of these. Perhaps two?
As you can see, most of these were gathered from CGSociety.org (thanks, Trek Realist!). The final one is Henri Rousseau's famous The Sleeping Gypsy. I tried to get pictures that would inspire various genres and not double up on anything, and those that had a story to them and would appeal to those who frequent the contest.

Now, I figure once we get all of our participants and images together we can find a judge and he/she will divide the pictures up (I suggest by lot or other random means of distribution). We will not be able to receive our own pictures, of course.

TUCKER: Malcolm? REED: I see it. TUCKER: Good. Means I'm not hallucinating. How can a ship be bigger on the inside than the outside? REED: It could be a hologram. TUCKER: Hand me that hyperspanner. (drops it down the hole - it hits bottom after two seconds) REED: You're not going down there? TUCKER: Got to get my spanner back.

Thank you to EE for the trail of breadcrumbs.

I'm an old school romantic kind of a gal so here are my entries. :)
And yeah, I know they're not sci-fi but Valentines' Day is tomorrow and all.
