well, i'm sure i wont win, so it really doesn't matter.....

is there a rule about not voting for yourself.....

i think, its a philosophical issue anyways, if I think my photo is best, then why shouldn't i vote for it?  Otherwise, i'm voting for the picture that I dont think is the best and surely thats perverse !!

And i'm not being arrogant, its just my pic has emotional attachment to me, where as the other dont !

When does the May competition open? Whats the topic for this month?

The winner of April chooses this months topic. Thats why I am asking for the closing date to be reduced.

I totally agree Lenny. Would be different if there were hundreds of votes but with so few votes the difference between 1st and 2nd could be one vote  :-\

Perhaps the entrants just don't vote or just have a straight rule 'Don't Vote For Yourself'  ???

I suppose it's an honour based voting system. As my teachers used to say; 'You're only cheating yourself'  ;)

I never entered as it was such a tricky subject. I looked for 'action' everywhere but no luck  :( Got a few decent shots but nothing worth entering  :)
