Judging by the low numbers, most people have gotten poor performance from their Goldfinger bananas. Have to hope MediaHound knows how to make a banana produce.

I think it'll only be fair that the next pic be after the contest is over, since it would give anyone who did not enter yet an advantage over those that did.
