With them visible before the revealing then you pretty much know what the outcome will be early on; a little anti climactic. Despite that it is nice to see the results after the revealing.

I thought the ability to vote for more than one entry would tend to cancel out any favoritism and whatnot, but I'm open to persuading that anonymity would be better. And I wanted all the Finalists to get recognition for superlative designs, making the cut should be a reward too, I think. Any opinions on all that one way or the other?

That way the voting is based solely on the strength of ths submission. Might I suggest that you keep the names of the entrants anonymous until the voting is complete?

Not trying to jump the gun, but if a team contest was held, could members belonging to said team, have been entered seperately before or...

I mainy did it just for fun, I meant to make a serious entry or two, but just didn't get around to it. There are some great entrants here. I'm going to have to go with the Imp's Minuteman, followed by DiCicatriz’ Minuteman in a close second. Seeing as Captain America is by far the greatest hero of all time, I just have to give it to his patriotic counterparts.
