    So, Alvin, how about publishing the winners of your competition HERE - their names, their entries, and their prizes. Not to do so seems irresponsible and disrespectful to the aminus3 members who HELPED you get it underway. For all we know, you might have unethical reasons for staging the competition - spamming, "borrowing" members' images for some purpose they aren't aware of, etc. To ignore this request will only confirm you are not on the level.
