he got a vote from me. it isn't friends voting for friends that bothers me. there's a group here, that is friendly and involved. the 20 has always been that way. what bothers me is the folks from offsite voting...and, i have even heard, possible clone voting for a candidate. and, i do think it wouldn't hurt to insist that someone have a gallery OF SORTS, in order to vote. for the artistically challenged...how about a pic in the member's gallery? or, even posts to the forums, on occasion. nameless folks who only come around to comment on ONE of the gallery pics...and, then fade back into the woodwork until that person posts ANOTHER gallery pic...well, i am suspicious of that. the 20 does mean something to certain folks here. it is wrong for one or two to "cheat" their way into it time and again....perhaps, beating out the likes of Leather-guy.
