Now this might be jumping thee gun, but given these extant circumstances we
are faced with three main approaches to the problem:

1) Call the contest closed, without winners.

2) Wait for such time as all contest entries reappear on brickshelf ::yawn::

3) Give Kevin L. the Fickle Finger of Fate, load everything onto free sites
like http://www.ozbricks.com/ (and there is a VERY strong preference that
only sites without banner ads or popups be used), reorganize the Official
contest webpage and now finished ballots to reflect these changes, vote, and
declare winners.

Let's delay both the start and end of voting by one week.  If the
Brickshelf issues are not cleared up by the time voting is scheduled
to start, then contestants should upload their images elsewhere and
submit the new location to the Ice Worm for updating the official
site.

Note that many Brickshelf images are visible, you just can't navigate
to them.  For example my entry is still visible on brickshelf through
the URL I submitted when I entered, and the pictures on my personal
site (which are served through Brickshelf) are also still visible.
