Tim:

Should we go the voting route and let the visitors choose the model of the
week/month from the pile?

I would like to have "advisory voting". People get to vote,
but whoever is responsible has the final word.

Or should we do that ourselves and rotate them some?  And
what should it be, week or month?

Looking at lugnet.cad.dat.models, I would say a month. Only
three new models in the last week (and there should be
_some_ competition).

And once a model is selected, should only that model be displayed
on the main page with a 'model of the week/month' caption below it?

That's a possibility.

Should we accept renderings of TLG models as well like
Kevin Bane's Explorien Starship?

If people can learn a bit about drawing LEGO models from it,
I think it would be ok.

Play well,

Jacob

(...) Large is good, either way though. Whatever you feel is your best work and whatever you would like to see there. Povray would be best, but ldlite is acceptable. You can do artificial backdrops, see the nebula backdrop on the featured Explorien (...) (25 years ago, 8-Jul-99, to lugnet.cad.dev.org.ldraw)

(...) No argument from me. That is pretty much how part voting has evolved. (devolved?) Sometimes, a contrary decision must be made. (...) Yes.
