Welcome to the first annual POTW voting thread. This competition collates all winning entries from 2008 and pits them against each other in a titanic battle of popular photographs.
Aside from the fact that there are no “new” entries, this competition will run much as usual, although voting will take place over a two week festive window as opposed to the usual 7 days.
So, you may cast votes until 10pm on 31st of December. A results thread will follow early in the New Year.

Points are awarded to each entrant according to the placing they receive:
First Place Vote = 5 points
Second Place Vote = 3 Points
Third Place Vote = 1 Point
In the event of two entries receiving the same number of points, the number of first place votes will decide the winner. You may vote only once and may not vote for yourself.

Any forums members can vote!

NB - the entries for weeks two and three had been deleted when I started collating the winning entries back in the summer. Thus, although we reached POTW 25, there are just 23 to choose between.

POTW should return in January 2009, with AndyWilson hosting the first instalment.
