i believe they did that because they didnt want people getting their friends to sign up and vote for thier pic.

Or signing up a couple of times themselves like last month..

@Thor the Mighty.. document size has nothing to do with actual image size. The size in kb is determined by the resolution, not by how big (in inches) your image is. When you work in Photoshop, after everything is done, go to 'save image for web', that way it's being compressed a lot more and you can retain the actual image size (in inches) even though you will only need (for example) 250kb.

Did this make sense? maybe someone else can explain it a little better.

You need to have at least 25 posts from now on to be able to vote.

I suppose some people will vote for their own picture, but that doesn't do much for me. Heck, I already know I liked mine. I don't view this as a contest with competition, but more a matter of being a compliment from others who have the same interests.

It isn't about winning, in my personal view, it's about someone else saying they liked what I did. That's more meaningful to me in the long run.

Free For All was nice way to ring in the new year. I'm working on next months assignment now.

Yesterday, when I had a look at the polls, the second pic had 11 votes followed by pic number 8 with 7 votes. Now the poll shows different results! Did the board get hacked or something?

P.S: I might be wrong but really it was different yesterday.

i just read in the off-topic that there were some problems with the server or something. So everything after the 5th is gone. Posts, threads and by the looks of it, the votes too.
you can read it HERE

The polls will be open for the next seven days.

Its pretty clear who won but when are they going to announce it.

What I find funny is that there were like 60 entries or something, but only 40 votes have been cast. So not even all the people who participated had the decency to vote. Pretty lame. Just my two cents. :meh:
