Contest in Photopost question

[Geiri]

Now that I have a site with over 25.000 photos I was planing to start using the contest option for galleries.

I need a few pointers for it..

If I create a category now, Photo of the Year. And a subcat "2008"
Will users have to re-upload photos to that category.

If I wanted to choose the best picture for 2008..
Would it be to late? do photos have to be uploded to that category or can a User simply go in to his album and tag a photo for the contest?

If I am to late would it be adviced to start the best photo of 2009 on the 1 of jan 2009?

I Some pointers would be good.
How do you do it?

if you create a category you set it to contest ratings and then users upload photos to it. once you have what photos you wish in there you are free as admin to enable voting by hitting enable voting when you view the category from your admin voting box.
