Set up a "Renderosity Artist of the Month" and "Renderosity Artist of the Year" contest at a completely different site - like say, 3-D Arena or Poser Pros - that's not run by Renderosity, get prize donations etc, and have it open to all of the members of the community for voting. And then just email Tammy and Tim afterwards and let them know who won so they can put it on the front page. Kind of like the current setup seems to be proposing: cut the members out of the loop and just let us know who won after it's over. That way, since the major bone of contention seems to be how the Rosity Admins handle the community interaction, and the contest administration, just elminate the problem by cutting the Rosity admins out of the loop. Hey - it could work! Just a suggestion. ;]
