BerserkerCatSplat, would it be possible to find out who took the other shots that were entered? Just something like:
Title - Photographer

Cheers.

You might want to do it like in photshopping threads, just edit original post and put author's names near photos after voting is over. Will not take too long images/smilies/wink.gif

I think a better "game" is "guess who took this photo"

Actually during the first assignment, i was trying ot figure out the pic's owner through the styles.
