Mostly, I would like to just see everyones best space creations and stuff. If I did this, would a model be a sufficient prize (...) (26 years ago, 4-Dec-98, to lugnet.general)

I like the voting idea myself, but you'd need someway to make sure people only vote once (1). What about multiple (...) (26 years ago, 4-Dec-98, to lugnet.general)
