Judge the winners youself instead of opening it up for "community voting". After all, you're the one sponsoring the contest. Who's to say the winner(s) will be one you actually like? If you don't have the time to wade through all the entries, then have a panel of judges. I just think that this is a much fairer method of judging entries. Mrs. Fish

I, too, am NOT really fond of the "community" voting, but I enter when I can, just because I like the challenge, but I have to "Honestly" admit.........that "NO" matter how good I think my entry is.......I won't win, I know that, so it doesn't matter to me. (: I think the votes are very selective between the members of the community and those who are popular will win..............even though I don't think their images are the best of the group. Just my opinion..........but..........for me, actually completing the challenge is a "Win" as I have so little time to do this, that for me........it is....an "Accomplishment". (: genny
