isn't the point of all the voting to find out which theme/direction the most people want the map to be? adding a theme afterward goes against that idea.
the argument saaimen made is a poor one. 202 / 364 votes went for what was given. you can't just say that the 10 people that commented with criticism/advice override those 200 votes simply because they didn't speak up.
the first round is for showing the direction. the second is for the finished product. if you can't complete it then don't commit to the contest or go with what the people voted for in the final.
(preferably there'd be a "this is what I've got give me comments/criticism and votes but just to show where the public opinion is at that moment" round then a true voting round after updates to determine finalists and a final round for the champion)
