In many cases it is shown, but just from recent challenges out of the 3 winners of the user portrait challenge only 1 shows settings (aperture, iso, exp. time) while for sports IV none. Even without further explanations this info is quite valuable for peers who want to learn.

I think, it would be good to make it uniform to display these basic values at least for the winners.

...Actually,this relates to BrennanOB's post but trying to be more minimalistic. What I suggest here is reinforcing an already existing
feature and the info is asked by the site council for the verification of the winner photos anyway.

I totally agree with this idea! It wouldn't hurt to also require a brief blurb about their equipment setup.......learning is a huge part of this site, and this would be invaluable knowledge.

The automated feature isn't automated for challenge entries. And it's also not asked for for validation. It's just included with the exif data that is intact on the photo. I do think the idea holds water. And I did add the data to my ribbon winner on Sports.

You are right, I have deleted the word "automated" from the original post.

Thanks for supporting the basic idea!

You know, in the past I've made the same complaint and now I'm fairly guilty of it. I'll take sure to put info and details on my ribbons. Oh wait, I haven't ribboned in over a year. Well, if I ever do, I'll make sure to add good details for you. :)

Well, actually I wouldn't mind to expand this to the top 10 instead of just the ribbon winners...:))
