Photo Contest Plugin
 

Hi everyone. I'm hosting a photography contest on a website that uses vBulletin. I don't have any admin priveledges on the site, and they are quite busy for the most part, but they agreed to try a vBulletin plugin that would support the contest if I could find one. I've browsed around the vBulletin Modifications forum for a gallery plugin that fits what I need, but its really tough without being able to try them out (again, I'm not a moderator or admin).

My question is whether any of you happen to know if one of the gallery plugins out there has all of the following features:

• Members of the site can upload their own entries (photos).
• Entries are displayed as thumbnails, which become full sized when clicked on.
• Members usernames are displayed with each thumbnail.
• A timer can be set switching the site from viewing/uploading mode to voting mode (users cannot upload photos any longer, and user voting begins).
• When in voting mode, any member of the site can vote on their favorite entry/entries.
• Votes are tallied and winners are displayed throughout voting process.
• Only members of the site can vote, and they can only vote one time.

These are some rough requirements. I would really appreciate it if anyone had any advice or could point me in the right direction. Thanks everyone!
