Why not just make it a normal LPF poll where the entries are labelled with numbers and then the pictures they reference are in the first post?

From memory from the poll I just started in the Off Topic section, The maximum entries you are allowed is around 10. Maybe use the current poll to get the top X and then change it into a Poll on LPF

Edit: Dam got beaten to it =P

Hmm. That's unfortunate. Well, you could always do manual votings...? Just have each person post once?

But then there's the issue of people possibly changing (editing) votes post me-counting-them. I thought of all this! I'm going to make it an LPF poll for the top 10 :) We'll just have to use this to get there.

You said there were 35 entries, but you could only find a poll system for 30. Can we see the other 5?

Also, is it bad if I'm partly judging on the basis of how much I think the person needs new lasers? Because my issue with ones like, say, #1, is it's clear that its owner will probably just throw their new lasers in the bin pretty quickly after receiving them. I know I shouldn't, it just seems like it'd be too easy to get a good picture when armed with a scanner - that doesn't mean they shouldn't have entered, since the point in this ultimately is to get people to try out taking photos and to have a collection of cool pictures, but doesn't seem fair that they should win.

I actually deleted the email account already.. I'll leave it to the submitters. If they don't see their pictures in the top 30 then they can post them here.

I also snapped a shot myself a little bit before the deadline just in my room and was going to enter it to see how it did (it wouldn't be able to win of course) but when I had to cut some out I cut mine out too.

So many fine shots...it was hard to decide.
:kewlpics:
Trying to keep it as honest as I can I cast my vote. I will only vote the once.
I will add that I would like to steal my choice so I can use it as my avatar...lasers and music just go hand in hand ya know...
Although #13 was an excellent composition, it looks more like a textbook cover. If you included the source lasers in the shot it would have added a little more to it, in my opinion.
Still, it would make a great poster !
And the reflections and refractions pic would make a great marketing presentation for hand held lasers. Shows all sorts of things that questions are asked about all the time. A very useful tool.
I could go on about so many but there isn't time.
Well done to all and I hope to be in the next one. (Stuff on order...)

"except the laser coming out my butt "

Not exactly what the definition of "Hand-held" is...
And perhaps a sharing violation worth 2 minutes in the penalty box IF you actually posted a picture.:spank:
But the backstory about who you get to take the picture and just how the "object" is dealt with afterwards should get you lots of sick comments.
Eeeeewwwwwwwwww.
:eek:
