Well by default I'd give all the entries a badge just cuz. It is kind of an insult to those who put up nice pics. But I too voted for the winner as a joke. But hey congrats anyways

Congrats! That's a pretty sweet rimless tank, is it a Concepts custom build?
Could you document the build in the nano forum?

just shoes that the picture of the month is a joke and takes down the creditability for all previous winners.

Indeed, generally POTM should be fun! This month in particular because well, it's the middle of summer. People are on their decks, on vacation, eating cherries and watermelon. In fact, I really enjoyed the this month's more relaxed and whimsical POTM and plan to repeat it next summer

At the end of the day it was a public vote. People voted for their favourite :-) That's really all there is to it.

Have a great summer !

so let me get this straight, you voted for it, yet you're complaining about it? Say what ??

I do like that this subject has generated a lot more discussion than previous POTMs.

Really what do you expect when it's a freshwater picture on a REEF site. Sure there are some people with freshwater tanks as evident by the real entries. I still voted for this picture because I thought it was silly.

It's not like this is a photo contest with cash prizes or magazine print offs. It's just for fun and bragging rights for a month. Somehow I doubt this is tlhood's shinning moment and they are having the picture framed above their (reef) tank.

Great art provokes emotion... Just sayin!

Everyone had great submissions, as they always do. I'm just happy that people saw the humour and creativity in this photo, and it brightened up a moment for at least some individuals.
