Dear Wikimedians,
Phase 1 of the POTY 2006 election is coming to its end.
If you didn't participate yet or want to change your vote, you can still do it until 2400 Feb, 14 (today) at: http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Commons:Picture_of_the_Year/2006.
Phase 2, to elect the winner and 2 runners-up, will start February 17 at: http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Commons:Picture_of_the_Year/2006/final.
Note: the final date has been postponed 2 days as has been stated in the first mail. We are trying our best to have the preparations for the final on time

While this is my opinion, I believe a number of other Commoners share it. I'd certainly like to see the Picture of the Year be one that was originally photographed or Illustrated by a Commons participant, rather than one that was found on a U.S. Government site or Flickr and uploaded.
