Other ideas –

I’m going to preface this first one by saying it came from my 19-year old daughter who wears a size 0:

Her suggestion is a site whose focus is bulimia. To her, at her age group, the picture of this pumpkin would fit perfectly. She didn’t hesitate when she made the suggestion.

Personally, I would have never suggested the pumpkin on that kind of site. I would have been concerned about the sensitivity of the issue. However, since her age group is one of the main groups for eating disorders, it’s a very interesting observation, isn’t it?

And no, she doesn’t have an eating disorder. She’s worried about being too thin.

Second idea:

Mothers Against Drunk Driving –

Third idea:

Sites promoting the flu vaccine, since we’re coming up on flu season (thanks to Dawn in my office for this suggestion)

What else?

A picture can say a thousand words, as the old saying goes.

And remember that you can take an interesting graphic and write CONTENT surrounding the graphic.

You could use it as the headless horseman–the pumpkin’s insides being blood.

(This was actually posted by my 19-year-old daughter using my laptop. Isn’t this one great?! Grizzly, but great!)

It could be used on a book or movie site. Even a library site could creatively use this pumpkin. “The Legend of Sleepy Hollow” is a short story by Washington Irving first published in 1820. EXCELLENT!)

Her name is Crystal, by the way.

Eddie,

GREAT idea, Eddie! Get the inside out view on ANYTHING! Great idea!

Be great on a news site — a comedy site — any site where you could add a twist to a view.

Thanks so much for sharing your idea.

I thought of another one. Okay okay — it’s a little gross, but it’s perfect for this site.

The pumpkin is spitting out the left side of its brain, which has become mush from all of this creativity.

Ha!
