Author, you asked why your name was on the entry. You will always be able to see your name on your own entry, but nobody else can see it until they have voted.

Many thanks for answering my query. I thought I'd done something wrong! May I ask you something else: I'd like to take part in a drawing contest and have seen comments about not using Photoshop filters. Could you tell me what else you can't use e.g. layer styles? I have searched the site but have not come across any guidelines on this. Many thanks.
