Upgrade!
The idea is make a card that is similar to another REAL card, but is a sort of upgrade, if that makes any sense.
For example, this,( http://mtgcardsmith.com/view/dimensional-splicing?list=user ) is essentially, as noted by others, an "upgrade" of warping wail. You can do it for ANY card, except basic land. Be sure to include the link to the real card.
I'm looking for three key things.
Balance - Is the card balanced and fairly upgraded and costs have changed appropriately?
Usability - Could this card be used? Or is it a Progenitus?
Upgrade - Is it clearly an upgrade? (My dimensional splicing fails in this category.) Is it obvious that the effect has become better or different somehow?
The reward is a favorite on the three best cards. Not nearly as insane as five favorites on cards of your choice or premium for a month, but it's what I'm going to do. Sorry, I tend to be stingy.
Summary:
Upgrade any real card, except basic land, and put it here. That's basically it.
