Congratulations to grilkip and mendhak and thanks to everyone who voted for my picture. I took the shot of the bee back in 2004 in La Quinta, CA at the Trilogy which is a pricey development with a golf course. Arrow_Raider I thought that your shot would place. I thought it was excellent.
Woohoo! Glory and recognition be mine! :afrog:
Who are you?
Congrulations all.
Hapy dayy two you all!!! :afrog:
Those who didn't vote visualad will all die a horrible death. Mwhahahahaha.
And those those who one, you will spend the rest of your lives in a cell with Rick Astley.
Congrats to all those who have won.
Congratulations all...
But I did warn you all, as I didn't win, Chuck Norris will come and seek revenge!
According to this post there were no more than 12 photos out of the 78 that received 1st place votes.Quote:

Your figure of 12 assumes that the 3 top finishers all got at least one 1st place vote. While that happened this time it is conceivable for a photo to receive no 1st place votes and still finish in the top 3.
Martin, perhaps you could specify the criteria of winning in this contest so other confusions like with EntityX will be clarified?
Thank you for pointing out that oversight. The method for determining the winner was mentioned in the 1st contest but I forgot to include it in this one. In any case I've added a Contest Winners section in post #1 that explains how the winners are determined.
Marty,that was an approximation and the sentence implies there could have been less (maybe unintentionally) :pQuote:

I was promised visualad's spleen as prize. :(
Thanks for the vote spam! :)
I've created this album that contains the winning pictures from the three contests that we've had so far.
Nice Collection<>.
I'm thinking perhaps in a year or so when we have had at least 5 contests that I might run a contest for the best of the best with perhaps some real prizes.
Real prizes! I don't know that might be going too far. Here's my suggestion.
1st prize : $ 1,000,000
2nd prize : $ 500,000
3rd prize : $ 250,000
Members would start taking up photography and you would certainly fill up all the spots if you offered such prizes. Coming up with the $ 1,750,000 prize fund would be the hard part.
But more seriously, you could offer prizes of some sort. Gift certificates maybe.
Remove 5 zeros from each and you're in the ballpark.
one only had 4 zeros!Quote:
