The winning pic reminded me of an infinity mirror type image. I hope Nuggetsdad is just enjoying an afternoon ride, maybe looking for a new theme. It's after 4pm there now, but already Sunday. If we dont get a new theme tomorrow, Sunday in the western hemisphere, I say the runner up should choose a new theme.
I can't remember the last time we had a no show winner. Jedz was off gettin hitched and had a slow response, but still within the weekend I think. Maybe another time the winner was away from a computer, but still checked in and the runner up set the theme.
Any Aussies nearby who can knock on his door?
I'll try and highlight the bullet point in the first post that says if you submitted a pic to check back on Saturday.[SIZE=10px]Roger

Judging by the comments folks make when they make their vote:
I think some folks vote for which they think best meet the theme.
Some vote if there is something in the picture that they like (such as 'spoked wheels').
Some vote because something in the picture reminds them of something in their past.
SOme vote because they liked the accompanying story (even if there is no evidence of that in the picture).
SOme vote for what they consider to be the best composed-arranged-exposed-focused picture on an artistic basis, as long as it at least marginally meets the theme.
Other folks (including me) use a combination of how well it meets the theme and how interesting the photo is and how well composed-arranged-exposed-focused the picture is. In my experience there is usually two or three sometimes four that are great AND really meet the category. What I do, for a tie-breaker, is to think of how I would describe the photo, and how early in that description would I use the words that are the theme.
But again, the rules-procedure does not really specify this point.

OK, hopefully we haven't seen the last of nuggetsdad and he's just off enjoying the warm riding weather on the bottom half of the planet.
Theme for this week is "moon shot", and I'm looking forward to some creative interpretations, keep it classy folks, or at least safe for work.

It will be interesting to see what people come up with. Unfortunately, my archives are bare for this one and the moon isn't exactly going to be very visible this week so I'm watching from the sidelines.

Thanks for getting this going again, Rich. I was excited for nuggetsdad to have a go at setting the theme. Maybe he'll have an awesome shot of the moon and jump back in here.[SIZE=10px]Roger

Sorry if the theme doesn’t suit many. It’s hard to come up with original ideas that we haven’t covered in the last 2 years of the game, and for which I have a pic to play in my limited archives.[B][I]Rich
