If you have a gap in your timeline between the "Judges Choose Winners" phase and the "Judges Announce Winners" phase the "Judging" and "Invite Friends" tabs will disappear and a "View Winners" tab will be displayed. No winners will be shown until the "Judges Announce Winners" phase begins.
Phase 4: Judges Announce Winners
During the judges announce winners phase, the “Invite Friends” and “Judging” tabs disappear and are replaced by the “View Winners” tab. All entries will still be viewable under the “View Entries” tab but only the winning entry along with congratulatory text will populate on the “Judges Announce Winners” tab.

Why can't you have voting and submissions going on at the same time? Seems like that would make for more engagement.
