(tl;dr for those too lazy to read at bottom)

Before I go ahead and do this, I want to ask a random question to all of GD:

I was thinking of starting a design contest. I want to get some of the lurkers of the forums to voice opinions, and hopefully hear from people the things they think could be added to the game. There would be a prize, of course, it would be more substantial to space poor people than people who are anywhere near as rich as spaceship barbie, but, hey- prizes are prizes.

So, fellow capsuleers- how many of you are creative and willing enough to enter an unofficial ship design contest? I know many of us who fumble through the forums all day have at least some idea of something new they think would be cool. For example- a design for that long awaited caldari/minmatar pirate ship we have yet to see. I have even already thought of a basic concept for it. But I want to see if people would actually like to be a part of such a thing.

TL;DR

I want to have a ship design contest, with a prize. Unofficial of course. Who would be interested?

Sign me up !
You have more specifics (like what do we take from the Caldari and what from Minmatar) - or should I just go wild? :D

I am creative, I just suck at expressing it. I think in pictures but I can't draw, I think in concepts but there are no words. Translations are always... lacking.

Its better than a constructive critic.

How can you be objectively critical about something so subjective?

Im on board, you will need to flesh this out a bit, maybe ask Chribba (incoming in 3.2.1.) really nicely to get involved to lend credibility.
but yeah great idea +1

Are you sure? Are you sure you dont mean being subjectively critical about objects?

I would try to judge it how I think how a person with two brains would thinks about it if you split both down the middle and cross-connected brain A right hemisphere with brain B left hemisphere and vice versa.
