Ah, this would be the core of our disagreement then...
I do not think that voting forces the voter to analyze more closely.
If I can just click on a little check-box on the web (or whatever) I
will end up doing it with much less thinking than if I send a text message
to the list saying, "I was looking at so-and-so's picture of blah and
have blahblahblah to say about it."
Others have said that the best thing about this whole idea is the
receiving of feedback...I agree. But I don't think a vote is a very
good way of getting feedback.

Yeah...the flow is great. :)
