Maybe this poll should be moved to Off Topic, to see what the people we want to get involved think?
yeah all the themes would be open for photo's from that quarter (3 month period)

I agree that everyone should vote, I don't care if it's a popularity contest... I'll have the photo's submitted to me via PM, and we'll just vote on the pictures not the screen names attached... so if they really want to win bad enough to PM others to vote for themselves... what ever.

Gotcha.....

I was thinking what you were meaning that there were themes and based on when the contest was going on which themes were "supported"


The only thing I see with the multiple themes per quarter would be almost having too many options at that point??? one or two "images" in a category doesn't make it much of a competition to "win"


..... as for the sake of fareness I was going for "only members who submit vote", but I dont' see any reason as to keep it where all members can vote as it is now. I agree @ Ebbs, if they want to take the time to PM folks to vote on what picture, well, they can do that...... They'll just rot in hell as douchebags because they can't win shit based off their merit/skillz.

Almost everybody knows what everyone else's bike looks like. People will still know who submitted what pic by the bike in it (the majority if the time). You can't get around the popularity contest in most cases.

Now having said that, I'm in.
I really don't give a shit if something I submit "wins" anything or not.
