Where do you guys get yours? I got inspiration for a Star Wars Gravball related game from Here(Lots of espionage with the main part of the campaign being them trying to win the galactic cup);and I've gotten a lot of ideas from MyhtBusters.

This isn't specifically Star Wars related, but http://fscape.tumblr.com/is always helpful to spur my creative juices.

From whatever honestly. It's hard to narrow down what will suddenly trigger an idea for a game in my head, but if I had to give a common theme, it would be music.

I have what I like to refer to as a Soundtrack Mind (similar to One Track Mind). When I listen to music, my brain automatically starts painting a personal "music video" for the song. This can vary widely as to what imagery I see, but considering the type of music I listen to, it usually becomes some kind of soundtrack for a dramatic scene of awesomeness or similar. So I'll suddenly have this image in my head, and that will be the kernel for a story idea, and I'll flesh it out from there.

That's not the only source, but I would have to say it's the most common trigger for me personally. But really it could be anything, I've had various nursery rhymes that I twist into something more sinister inspire story ideas. Random images on deviantart have inspired pack totem spirit ideas for a werewolf game I played in once. Just, anything really.

My problem isn't getting inspiration, it's latching onto a specific idea and holding onto it long enough to flesh it out into something to run.

I like old canon. Also I get inspired by the cartoons. So much to choose from.

A lot of my inspiration comes from published adventures, from all iterations of the Star Wars RPG, I like to work up ways of how to link adventures together or to see how one adventure might flow in to the next. I also like to embellish adventures quite a bit to fit my group and the stuff I make up generally leads me to make up more stuff. And because I have quite a good memory for detail I often unconsciously pull ideas from an old adventure that then makes the whole thing feel connected and creates a bit of a bread crumb trail for my players.

My players are also very creative and keep me on my toes quite a bit so I have to adapt quite a lot to the unexpected things that they do. This forces me to be creative very quickly and I seem to thrive on this sort of challenge. A lot of my best material is made up on the spot in this way.

Inspiration from all over.

From books, TV or movies. - One more Fern Gully/Dances with Wolves/Avatar reboot should be ok, right? 70s & 80s sci-fi is ripe for picking, as are the original inspirations of Buck Rogers and Flash Gordon.
From science journals - They are catching up with the fiction, lots of cool materials tech.
From political journals - Corrupt politicians are great fuel.
From crime journals - Corrupt politicians are great fuel.

From Bad, Bad Puns - So may ideas from bad puns or other jokes at the table or jokes about Star Wars dialogue. e.g. The Power Converters are an all girl band touring the outer rim. Or a Gang, depending whose campaign you're playing.
From Soap Opera - Adapt that Friends or Seinfeld or General Hospital script to fit a game. Have a villain loose and eye and adopt a patch, only to loose the patch and revel his cyber-eye at a good point (I'm saving this one).

Actually, yesterday we had a scene in a cantina. My character got tipsy and was leaning over the the NPC next to him saying "My friend likes you. I like you." Playing around with the dialogue from the movies is a lot of fun.

It can be, but some of us, me personally, like to try and avoid doing callbacks to the movies. Nothing wrong with doing it, but after several decades of seeing homages and namedrops, and callbacks to classic scenes, I'm kind of done with them you know? I think the straw that broke my fanboy back was The Old Republic game. Doesn't matter that it's 5000 years ago, the smuggler's got a wookie copilot. Every crime boss is a Hutt. Every time something dramatic and dangerous happens someone says "I've got a bad feeling about this" or "You're my only hope." If there is a band playing music, it's going to be that alien band from the cantina. There's paying loving tribute to the source material, and then there's shameless copy/pasting due to lack of inspiration.

TV episodes seem to fit short adventures.

More specifically, WW2 movies when creating Rebellion era adventures. They seem to have the right feel. I've even named adventures after a few old WW2 movies like, "Where Rebels Dare", and "Dodonna's Heroes".

I find listening to epic instrumental scores, and Star Wars soundtracks in particular, help me to write.

All over the place. Books, movies, TV shows, other peoples games. Mostly I just make stuff up. I'm usually pretty good an coming up with my own ideas wholesale, but do have dry spells or spots where a module fit in nicely and I'll pull in outside stories.

I put those on when it's GM Time, too!

I steal everything. I mean, a-hem, Inspiration strikes me continuously when I see something that is not star wars. Also, I found pdf's for some really old SW comics on the net (the B&W kind) so I have a lot to look at when stea-...I mean, when inspiration is desperately needed. I even ripped off almost an episode from the simpsons. I would like to tell you, but I have players visiting this forum more regularly now, and I have to be carefull

NPC's are something I borrow from other shows very frequently since imo I'm rather bad at improv. I need a gruffy gang leader they meet in a bar? Col. Ty from BSG it is, or even Moe Sizlak. Some female renegade? Barb-Wire. Port-authority? and old boss I despised.

It helps me a bit to keep the characters in character in my head.

Also, some pictures make me want to do an entire campaign based on them, like this one:

Where to get inspiration?

How about some Samurai Movies for your F&D game?

Did you like Jewel of Yavin? Then how about some Heist Movies?

For your Age of Rebellion game, clearly you need some War Movies!

And of course for Edge, you cant go wrong with the Spaghetti Western.
