Good idea.  I've added the rule.  There is no way to verify or enforce it so we'll just have to trust people.

I'd like to take the credit but it was someone else (I don't remember who) who suggested the photo contest in a post.

Since I don't have a picture in this competition, I find it easier to comment.
I don't understand why the picture I voted for got only one vote.... mine. This one is as good as it comes. The fish is shown in his best posture, all fins deployed. This is obviously not a snapshot. The lighting is good.... I can see the eyes of this fish. :)  And the background... there to isolate and compliment the subject. Congratulations! You did get my vote.

uh? :?   Pegasus never had an entry in the contest.  There were technicals difficulties with nJoyrid's entry but they have been corrected.  Nelson had an entry but it was removed at his request.

For the next contest you should be alowed to vote for yourself if you realy think you have the best shot. There's no shame to that, instead of having people suspecting you of breaking the code of honor.  :idea:

Sure, if you can convince your significant other to pay for it.
Oh yuo meant OVAS paying? :-) Well now that you mention it, there is a paid trip to Montreal this weekend. So that's the prize. :-)
