Being involved in some community votes for graphics in various projects,
I agree with this: open vote is not a good idea.
IMO, cheating is not the main problem, the problem is voters usually
does not have the knowledge to make a good choice.

The opposite could be also used: the Artwork team select a few and from

But I still think this can be decide just inside the Artwork team.
