I’ve done some tests in the gallery and it looks as though what we’ll have to do is;

At the start of each competition/month or whatever anyone who wishes to take part in the competition can upload their photos to the named album. Then at the end of the month when everyone has uploaded their images we the Mod’s/Admin can enable the voting to take place.

The reason for not allowing anyone to vote from day one is that each member can only make one vote in each of the competition categories (albums). So if you make a vote before all the entries are in you may well find that a better image comes along at a later date and because you have already voted you will not be able to change your mind and vote again.
So I think its best that we don’t allow voting until a given date and after all entries are in.

There maybe a better way of doing this, so we’ll have to see what Roy comes up with.
