Why don't use ccHost in openclipart.org ?

In the past there were some people who wanted the contest to NOT be held on deviantart. Since I tend to be the person who has started them there, I'd like to get a feel from the community about where people stand on this. If there is a desire for us to host it, suggestions on a good way to handle the display and voting would also be appreciated. :)
I was going to suggest we could use Flickr - but then I don't know how we'd handle voting. And I'm not sure Openclipart has a voting mechanism either.
For LCA 2008 we ran a competition to pick a sharpener... (long story) anyway, we have a little website that lets you upload an image - and have other people vote on that image...

All it needs is an authentication system to patch into... so it can read username or email and password. Perhaps the Inkscape wiki would work? It uses MySQL to store votes.
Changing the header, and the voting labels to be relevant is trivial :)
