You're right, illusions. That was a small sampling and it does seems as if it was unfairly slanted to favor the Poser artists. Legume has vigorous advocates who were sure to vote for him, while some people may have missed the fact that an unofficial vote existed simply because of the way it was posted. They may or may not have voted for Legume had they known. And some people were so discouraged that they abstained altogether. I personally think they should have declared the artist of the year null and void for 2002. No one won in this sad affair.
