In this case, the Autobot is a button that an admin needs to click on. My bad.

Not very "auto". Maybe "Modbot" would be more appropriate? :D

One click of the button and everything happens... It posts the results, it adds the photo tho the Winning photos of 201x topic, and it adds a thumbnail to the home page. Though, for some reason, the Tasmania December thumbnail pic hasn't linked on the home page. I can't fix it, I need access to the back end (and I also need to understand more about that code *&%$#!)
So I'm bringing it to Nik's attention.
There's also a quirk if there's a tie, and I can't remember how to deal with that, so I better find out that too.

The process is done with the requirement of a click of a button so as to give admins a chance to approve the content that posts to the board in these comps.

Thanks SBS, liked yours too. I chose that view of the Needles because I liked the cloud formations overhead. It was actually "hindsight contemplation" after I'd finished the walk. Congratulations Bap and other entrants. I thought they were all good shots :).

No worries John, it was the cloud I liked in your pic - well done Bap, where was your pic taken?

Just before the summit of Mt Dundas
It is easier to go down a hill than up, but the view is much better at the top.
