i guess the cropped (second) one. was hoping you would decide which one you liked the best.

The second one is a good choice and would have also been mine.
I don't like to choose for people... it has backfired in the past for me so now I remain neutral. I have a hard time putting up the final five at times so I use a point system that I have developed when the photos get really close.... and I still hear it at times. Does not do any good as I place myself in ignore mode.
TallJeep, you pic looks great and I might have to remove your entry and have you enter that pic at a later time. Please let me know if it has been at least 12 months since you last won

There has been a change in the guidelines a few weeks ago. It was done mainly to spread the wealth.
Paragraph #7 was modified and Paragraph #8 was added.QUOTE
7. In order to be fair, winner of the "Jeep of the Month Picture" for the winning month, will not be allowed to enter again until a 12 month period has passed. The only exception... If there is only one entry for that month, they will be allow to make a submission toward the end of the entry period in order to have at least two entries for the run off voting. If there are zero entries for any given month, the current last month's winner will remain in display on all of JeepTalk pages until there is a new winner.
8. It will be mandatory for the winner of the JOM to submit a high resolution picture (not the one that was entered) of the winning picture to the email address listed on paragraph #1. It will be noted that by winning you are relinquishing any ownership of the winning picture, it will be released and become the property of JeepTalk.net to be to be used for any purpose. If the winner does not produce a high resolution picture of his winning entry, they will forfeit and the next highest vote will be awarded the win.
