Hi Everyone, I have never asked before but was wondering how many images one can vote on, on any given day. Usually i vote once or twice but today i voted about ten times. The work of art today just blew me away.Absolutley breathtaking images. So is their a set number we can vote for in a day? Thankyou Chris:)

I dont think that there is a limit to the amount of votes you can make. Making multiple votes on one image will still only count as one though (I think) LP

Dianthus...you can vote as many as you can look at in a day.Just not the same one twice though They are talking about changing the voting age to 16 now ...you will qualify Tedz.

It doesn't matter who you vote for, the govornment always gets in.....Personally Guy Fawkes gets my vote - the only man to enter Parliament with honest intentions. (",)

"The only man to enter Parliament with honest intentions" LOL maybe a good point!

sigh LP, do we have to explain EVERYTHING to them?!? On November 5th of every year we Brits choose to freeze our asses off in the cold to go to the nearest bit of scrap land where local delinquents have made a big pile of wood usually consisting of old peoples' fences. We then get a bunch of rags, make them into a vaguely human shape and put it on top. We then set this pile on fire and wait for the fire brigade to put it out because it's unsafe, even though it's been ok for the last four hundred years. Up until about 7-8 years ago when SAFETY became paramount, we used to have a laugh by putting raw potatoes in foil into the fire, levaing them a little while and then attemting to eat them half raw and calling it fun. Now we mainly just have firework displays coz of the influence of your guys' 4th July / Thanksgiving celbrations. Cheers. We do this because in 1603 Guy Fawkes and some friends thought removal of the King, James I, would aid the Catholics, and decided to blow up parliament when he was opening it for the State Opening, an annual event. (Mistakenly, most people think it was to remove the govornment but that was only a secondary effect.) Unfortunately one of the gang got cold feet and warned a toff mate to keep away on that day. The King got the letter, the whole thing got unraveled and Guy Fawkes is the effigy that gets put on top of the bonfires. This isn't coz he got burned at the stake like some people think, but because the bonfires were originally lit to celebrate the safety of the king. Hope you enjoyed your brief history lesson. (",)

Thank you Jordy for that history lesson. I mean that, I am rather envious of my neighbors around the world who have serious history, not unlike the US which can only go back 229 years to discuss it's "history" as a nation. You describe events that happened "on your street" or close enough that happened 400 years ago. 400 years ago "on my street" there were probably "Native Americans" and piles of buffalo dung with nary a dream of important social upheavals taking place. One of these days, I'll be able to afford to take a trip to your part of the world and see where the important events of history took place.
