The picture submission thread will start on the 24th December, late afternoon, to brighten up your Christmas.
Then, depending on the number of submissions and assuming there's going to be plenty, we'll have a two stage vote. It'll start on the 27th, I assume the voting will be very scattered and by the 29th I'll trim it down and only the top 4 or 5 entries will remain, so that on the 30th and 31st a winner emerges.
