I like the more abstract, open-ended or methodology-based challenges which leave a lot of scope for creativity. Off the top of my head:
Yesterday
Power
Alive
Sport
Fuel
Excess
Music (I liked achiral's 'sound' suggestion)
Work
Play

I also like the magazine cover idea, infact I think it could be one of the best challenges so far. I don't think magazine covers (with the possible exception of something like Time magazine) can be described as photojournalism.

How about some more assorted composition techniques:
Foreground/middleground/background
Leading the eye
Triangular composition
Dynamic equilibrium
Complex and/or busy subjects
I seem to learn more on these sort of things, as opposed to the bridge/egg/pencil challenges.

Taking a well known photograph and re-creating it with a twist :) (or without the twist)

I like the challenges most which ask for using a certain technique. Blur, DOF, highkey and so on would be great. I want to add "Inverted Colour" :)
From the list of themes byby tomtinho I would like "Abstract Imagery" most.
I think we had already Capitalism in the form of the "Corporate World" challenge.

That would be great, too! Very interesting.
Maybe make the photograph in question the same for everybody.

I just spent 4 hours with an exterminator (good news is that I have no termites in the house) so how about bugs/insects once all the butterflies and preying mantis are out and about?
I'd love a challenge on domestic animals or wild animals (wildlife might allow for more than just animals).
I also have a pregnant cat so if you're ever gonna do one on birth...
;P |

I like joshua's idea a lot.
Also, we can do "states" and leave it open to interpretation..."state of georgia" or "state of confusion" ;) |

I think it would be interesting to see how people live around the world and this give a wide area for interpretation |

Chess. For all those who like to play and shoot it. It seems at least one pops up every challenge (well almost). It would force some originality into the chess photos
