OK, I'm going to change my vote to this.  I like the idea of a seperate
group for professionals if the number warrants.  Makes things more fair if
large numbers of pros enter, without excluding anybody.

Since this is a competition dealing with aquascaping, I believe the person
or persons responsible for the conception and maintenance of the layout
should get the credit.  In the case where the layout is partly specified by
one person and maintained by another, both should be listed.
