Your questions are very very vague. You're going to need to elaborate a little more to get proper responses.

Hi there i was wondering what you consider to be out of the box play in a tourney format.

Providing and examining a hand that looks like it is "out of the box" would be a good starting point. I've found that "out of the box" play is only really effective when sparsely used to mix up your play. Conventional play has technical merit to it that will probably not be achieved through "out of the box" play but unconventional play can definitely be used to confuse your opponents or take advantage of their weaknesses.

Im not quite sure what would be the most effective play to use to make my table image seem stronger.

What is a "strong table image"? That you always have good hands or that you are a good player? Table image is normally associated with being tight/loose and aggressive/passive. There isn't a whole lot you can do to create a different image than you are actually playing. The exception is when there are statistical ananolies to the actual cards but you don't have any control over that.

What level are you playing at? Table image only matters if an opponent is actually capable of forming one. At low levels, this just isn't so for a substantial majority of the people you'll be up against.

Huh?Are you talking about playing any 2 cards? small suited connectors? Anything that's not AA or KK? Not sure where you are going with this but I would like to know.
