I think that to be fair about influencing the final judging we would want to have our photos exclusive to FOM2. If I take a photo that is on my website then put it on FOM2, anybody visiting both sites is obviously going to make the connection to me, or anybody else doing the same thing. I know that I have dozens of photos that are worthy of being on my site, but which are not. So why not play by the rules and make it exclusive to the FOM2? Steve Annapolis
