Default 21,000 members and only 25 VOTED???

Come on, people!! It only takes 2 minutes to look at the photos in the May Photo Contest and vote for one.

I'd really like to see more people voting. At this rate it makes you wonder if it's worth keeping the contest going.

The theme is Kick off Your Summer!

Here's the link to the contest entries: May Photo Contest Entries

Here's the link for voting: Vote for May Photo Contest Winner


Be patriotic in honor of Memorial Day and VOTE!!!

I know, we have 42 entries - not even everyone who entered a picture in the contest has come back to vote!

I know. That's crazy. I like how you bumped it. I imagine that when people use the "new posts" feature, they may not look at every page of posts. Then it disappears the next time they come on since it never has any actual posts.

My problem is that I can't decide.... if you mix a GSD with water... it just can't get any better!!!! And the one with the little girl and the wagon! I would like to vote for them all, but will force myself to make a decision!!

Maybe after voting everyone should bump the thread so it is not easily missed.

I think the problem with the current system and the amount of votes is that everyone forgets about it.

I'll see a thread one day in the active topics section that says it's voting time, but since no one can comment in that thread, so it just drops down in the active list and everyone forgets or just plain doesn't even know.

Is there any way we can make a banner at the top of the page that says to vote? It doesn't have to a banner, just something where when you click onto the website, there's some kind of reminder telling you it's time to vote?

I know i'd vote a lot more, but I always forget. I'm sure it's that way with a lot of people.

Sorry. I'm one of the many that just aren't interested in this contest so not only don't look, but don't vote. Good for the people that do though.
