Hey guys, what sparks creativity for you?

I only recently figured out that I start getting creative when I daydream or need to find a solution.

Here's a fantastic link: http://www.jpb.com/creative/creative.php

Playing other people's games (particularly indie and amateur games), looking through my old art and pencil + paper RPG folders, jotting down ideas on paper and drawing concept art.

Also, for dungeon ideas I used to ask people "If you could explore any environment, what would it be?". I've gotten all sorts of answers.

EDIT:

Drawing is probably the best way to amass creativity. All of my good ideas (most of which I never put into a computer game) came to me when I was actively drawing cartoons. Check out Mark Kistler's website: http://www.draw3d.com/
