The Official SuggestFest suggestions topic

[64Guitars]

There are still two days of voting left, so things could change, but it looks very much like SuggestFest will win for the Artists/Covers festival. A couple of people have said that they're anxious to post their suggests even though the poll hasn't ended yet, and a few people have already posted suggestions in other topics. So I decided to make this topic to keep all of the suggestions together in one place. I've marked it "unofficial" for now. If SuggestFest wins the vote, I'll change it to "official". If you've already posted suggestions in other topics, please repeat them here. If you'd rather wait till the vote is official, that's fine too.


Update - 2013-07-30 - This topic is getting quite long, so I thought it would be good to summarize the suggestions here.
