Just a suggestion.

I think an extra day is generous enough, especially considering that the rules say "Marty's choice" for a tie-breaker. After all, it took a week and a half of voting to get them to that point. Marty can just send a pm reminder to everyone (if he wants), give 'em 24 hours, let the voting decide. Just my

the extension made a difference because I emailed the whole community, not because we kept the poll open for longer. We're not emailing anyone for the tie breaker, but I did pass the link to 1700 members via facebook. I need to get the calendar to the printers and their lead times are long...since I was really to make the pick, it's not really official voting, but rather "Choose because Marty's lame at breaking this tie" It will still take me a bit to finish the calendar layout, so I don't want to delay this.

12th place is taken by photo #20

Thanks to all that voted, submitted photos and of course congratulations to all of you that won the calendar and a spot in it!

I absolutely have no clue who won, because I haven't traversed through the submitted emails to hunt down the winners yet, but I will once I do the layout. Great contest as always !

Umm...I'm thinking I have missed something...when I go to the Support Store to by the 2011 Calendar, I only see the 2010 available for purchase. Is there a 2011 available? Did I miss it?

[Marty]

No, you're not missing anything...I just can't catch a break to finish the calendar. I'm hoping within a day or two
