Sorry, this vote doesn't work.

You have logo 9 two places and logo 10 no place.

You can make a reply to your vote, where you correct this.

I agree, if voting is fair at all, then it is fair with the present vote.

I still don't think we have gotten a -GREAT- Povray logo, but since I
couldn't come up with a better one and neither has anyone else...

...maybe there should have been a "None of the Above" entry.

This just came to my mind: We could just discuss the votes now. If it makes
people change their minds, there's still plenty of time for them to change
their votes before the deadline.
I don't see any problem with people being permitted to change their votes,
as long as it is still in the voting period.

Well, I though about it, but it would have made the rules more complicated.

Would you rather have that POV-Ray doesn't have a logo at all?

It could be that if the "none of the above" were to have the most
votes it would signal peoples dissatisfaction with the current
entries as the logo of choice for POV-Ray. It would mean that
more creative entries are needed before a consensus is reached
and everyone is satisfied that POV-Ray is getting the logo it
deserves. It would mean that it's time to go back to the old
drawing board and start over. It would mean...

I know, but it would not be as simple as that. Many people would probably
think that some of the logos are good enough, but others not. Therefore, in
my original version of the rules I provided an option to "vote blank" which
meant that each voter could specify if his blank priorities was an
indication of laziness or rather that the blank priorities weren't good
enough.

I asked for opinions on these rules and the only feedback I got was that
they were too complicated. So I simplified them. If I had got replies from
people saying that it was good I provided the option, then I probably
wouldn't have removed it.

What's your intention ?  Pick up a winner, or ending up with an
excellent logo for Povray ?

It could be a jury or some other system, but that's not the point.

We don't need many people to discuss that.  We need a clever discussion,
not a numerous one.

One more time, it's not about winning, it's about getting a good logo.
Once we get the vote results, we'll have a better idea of which logo's
best fulfills the requirements for a Pov-Ray logo.  The discussion
could end up to the enhancement of "enhance-able" logos, and we
could switch to a collective work, based on existing logos, or maybe a
new 
synthesis facilitated by a better understanding of the requirements.

How can you think that a vote can sort the best logo ?  By experience,
voting usually gives a priority to "less disliked" stuff, and passe by
stronger choices... voting is a good indication, but is not sufficient.
