Abel, I don't see the poll in the Panarama category. The poll appears for all the other categories as far as I can tell.

Is it just me, or were there a lot less entries this year? It seems like we had a few categories last year with over 100 entries, but none this year. People was the highest with 86.

yeah.. about 300-400 less i believe... i didnt get to promote it as much as i would have liked plus, we didnt have any of the prizes listed so people didnt know what they were competing for.

i bet if i said there was a free cruise to the winner we'd get like 5,000+ entries! hehe.

no worries... next year... ill have my ducks in a row!

Wow, some seriously great stuff yet again this year... it appears I need 4 votes in each category.. for most of them, I could narrow to four.. but to kick one of them to the curb and only choose 3... THAT was hard.

Great stuff.. can hardly wait for a week...

I kept looking to the right of the panoramas entry page looking for the poll like the earlier message sad...... Finally, I realized there was a separate voting page for it.....duh....

I still haven't gone through all the categories yet to place my votes, but I just wanted to stop for a minute to say Thanks Abel. It must have been a long night getting this together. I'm sure you already know, but just want to say that we appreciate all the work you put into the forum for us.

Curious to know how the votes count for the overall 1/2/3 place? I know that w/in each category the 1/2/3 place is based off of number of votes. Just wondering how the overall is caculated esp. since each cat. is weighted differently due to number of submissions.

Thanks,
Roy
