Its hard to make a choice. But I did. Its amazing how a picture of a far away place looks like it was taken just around the corner.

Agree with Mlaz. And the photos are amazing. What a beautiful calendar this will be. I'm hoping one of mine gets in so I can make all my friends who make me buy those elementary school fundraiser things for their kids, buy our calendar. Selfish? Not! Well, maybe. Paybacks are great. Since I don't have kids, I've been on the buying end of the elementary school fundraiser thingy by I can't tell you how many parents, and now I'm hoping I can call in the favors for our site!

I voted for image 18. I love winter.

There were a lot of very good ones, though.

Hard to say, as all the pictures remind me of places I used to call home.

Vancouver...While I may not live there anymore, this is the city I still call home.

I'll plug the thread in Ten Forward, the equivalent of hanging up a sign on a bulletin board, but for the internet

Also, if it comes to it, just take all your two voters and make a separate poll, forcing those of us who supported a picture with only one vote (whoo, Picture 13!) to reassign our vote.

Like Ron Paul supporters.

Thirteen was yours?

It was very nice. Too bad I don't own a camera or I'd have some phloxing fall and winter Minnesota pics to show you.

And you'd be like, "Damn, that's so hot I'm gonna vote for those, except I don't want Melvin to know how much I love his state, so I'm just going to be over here, voting for another one but secretly yearning I could tell Melvin how much I love him.

I think we should each have 3 votes (like first choice, second and third).
There were a bunch I loved, but was forced to choose only one.
One is not enough when you are selecting twelve total.
Therefore, I vote for having more votes.
Yes, more votes would be fair.
Vote for more votes.

I liked many of the pictures and had a hard time picking which one I liked the best. Is there a way to vote in order of most like to liked less? :huh:

I think it might go a long way to help with the voting and may help with possible hurt feelings.

I could think of a couple months I'd like excluded from the calender myself, but as we need 12 images, I need two more people to vote for pics that haven't been chosen yet
