Nice trick, Bryan! :D Choose a nice picture (someone else's), comment on it (not forgetting to include the original picture in your post) and watch the votes roll in!!

Can't say more, because I mustn't influence the votes...

You should be able to cast three votes, I cant see anything in my control panel to suggest otherwise, I've cast my three and can't cast more

Mike,
Have you re-set the counter and want us to vote again? I ask because it looks I can vote again for a second time...

Hi Guys,
No I havent reset the counter, if you have placed three votes then please do not vote again.
It may be that when I edited the thread to remove Bryan H from the voting list that the system has automatically reset.....I don't really know, but it sounds plausable :)

Guy, I'm shocked that you think me capable of such Machiavellianism :wink:

Oh but then I can't see how the voting is going! :)

Do we know our votes have been counted though for those of us that seem to have the option to vote again?

Hi Mike,

I've taken a look, and the edit did, indeed, reset the counter. So please vote again everyone that can!

Cheers,

I had more votes last week than I have now. This is a Mugabe style fiddle, albeit without the violence, to make sure Gruditch wins. :roll:

Congratulations to Gary, FishEE and Guy. Worthy winners.
I would like to thank everyone who voted for me. It's the first time that I got more than one vote! (a personal success)
Well done to all who took part.

Cheers

Congratulations to Gruditch who was incidentally my first choice and to Padfield who was my 2nd choice. My other vote went to Sussex Kipper who came in 4th. All great shots :)
