Carry on with it, the last two contests were great and I'd love to see more - 
it's a nice alternative to the IRTC, and as such I don't think that the 
frequency is too high.

I like number 3.

How about a short-code-contets for animations? Perhaps a 100 frame loop rendered 
in 320x240, with some restrictions on the size of the code, the objects used, 
render-time,...
Just an idia.
