Yeah that's a good idea, and I guess it won't be hard since its about me :P lol, I could put personal pictures like of family, and moments with friends, you think?

A hot topic right now is dogfighting and dog abuse. That could be a theme.

I don't think it will be hung, I'm not sure I guess it depends on how well it is, its due in about a week, and I'm not sure the poster board size, but I guess it can be any size.

Here are collages by an expert --

That would be the easiest route to go. But, since you did mention that you wanted it to have a message and make people think, how about what Wondergirl suggested, something about dog fighting and dog abuse?

Thanks! Those are nice

Look at some of the collages in the link I posted. It's amazing what you can do with pieces of paper!

Yeah I like that idea

[Edit] (Is what you wrote above in reference to what I just wrote below? Sorry if I just repeated a question.)

So, what did you think of the dog idea? Doing something like that would be challenging, make you look good to your teacher and also make people think because of the subject matter.

If you're going to go with dogfighting and dog abuse, first brainstorm words and ideas that are related --

Michael Vick
Pit bulls
Unconditional love
Rescue
Cages

List more.

Yeah it is

My brother also told me it could be a collage of the problems our world is facing, like war, homeless people, things going on in africa, people living with difficulties. And the collage could be a message of how our world needs change. That's what he suggested. What do you guys think?

Here is a search that will give you more ideas as far as words to use.

I think that now you're cracking (thinking) and the inspirational fluids are flowing! Good work! :D

It would be best to pick out a subject where you can get the most variety of visuals to use for your collage.

And trying to say too much won't focus your work. Your collage will be all over the map and sort of wild. I suggest you stick to one specific theme like the dog abuse one or lack of empathy for the disabled. Your teacher would prefer that. Anyone can slap and glue any kinds of pictures etc. on a poster board and call it "Problems our world is facing."

Ha, I knew having a brother would come in handy some day :P : )

Well, you think I should do it on that?

What turns YOU on for a collage subject?? YOU have to be on fire about it.

There is some time yet to work on this.

It really does need to be your choice as far as the subject is concerned.

How about you putting together a list here in a column of the subjects that have been mentioned so far in this thread? That would help us to help you to decide on the subject. We could go through the list one by one and eliminate the ones that wouldn't be the best for your collage. What do you think? :)

Well

1. me, my interests etc.
2. dog fighting and dog abuse
3. empathy for the disabled
4. homeless people
5. war
