Tom, I feel kinda bad having Gina up there since she's not actually a poster. She does have one vote! But that vote should go towards a poster that takes time to post. If you ever come up with the Athena Model of the year.....

Beanz, she was nominated, so she's deserving of being here. I don't think it's going to swing the vote, after all.

Is it possible to hide the number of votes and just have the final winner at the end?

I wish it was. The option is blind though until you have already voted. If you haven't voted, you won't see the graphs unless you actively try to.

That's what I meant by actively trying to.

We should make it one award per winner Then She'd have to choose between Athena and Rookie, and the second place person takes over, like in the Miss USA Pageant! *chuckle*
