Upcoming si-birthday?

On the 3rd of June the si-community celebrates its fifth birthday. This is an event I don't want to let go by unnoticed. I, however, haven’t got a clue how to celebrate this in light of recent events, so I thought I’d open up this thread to enable some discussion on the subject.

It's not the theme of the party I am worried about...
It's more a matter of the decorations that would make it a special day.
Due to a bad experience with our only official contest in the past,
we conveniently "forgot" to try our hands at a new birthday-contest.
But that was the kind of thing I was thinking about.
;)

PS Anyone up to the challenge to design a nice birthday thumbnail (150 x 150) for our gallery.
If so, contact me per PM, to not spoil the surprise.

Need I remind you the si-community is in no way, shape or form affiliated with Autodesk Inc and our fifth birthday is completely unrelated to their way of doing business. That it might as well be the last birthday this community gets to celebrate as a result of their way of doing business makes it a "extra special" occasion, but the two are technically still unrelated. We've worked hard to become what we are today (which admittedly has "taken a hit" lately) and any misgivings towards "the" company do not belong in this thread IMHO...

Not the same thing but anyway, my hair styling baby :) celebrated five years before few weeks. It is few months older than SI-community. Decided to first put myself into it, as I intend to forget all that stuff in some periods of year. In next stage, to do few small improvements, fixes and like.
Now what's appropriate :) for birthday of internet forum, I don't know, but, I'd say, some small, visible new thing, never hurt.

FYI: It is Autodesk themselves is giving that information themselves in their SEC filing, like every company.
