Maybe later, by non I'm thinking about still images only (becuase of file
size mainly)

Maybe a combinated system. First  the contributors select their favorites.
Then a group of "selected curators" chose theri favorites and based on both
choices the best works are selected. Of course that this would need an
automated system for rating the images.
