Hi Phyllis,
As I said elsewhere, its a good point to increase the limit if it is a topic of little interest - or decrease it, when there is a high interest.
And you made another good observation that sometimes 'certain' works get high votes (or even win), when they are 'not so great' ,
but are clearly voted for 'en masse' by friends and relatives.
But that is another story for another discussion, or for something administrator should look into - like not accepting every sub-standard
picture or removing those 'not so great works' before voting takes place.
Cheerio, Hartmut :-)
