There are ways to get "selective desaturation" with basic rules...just a bit harder to do. Here is one way.

I had high hopes for this one. Looks good, but probably not good enough for ribbon material.

Whoo hoo... My 3rd challenge, and my highest score going yet... I finally broke a 4!

I so suck at this! But it's fun!

And the comments help me to know what I've done wrong.

With so few entries on this one, I wish the voting period was not so long.

There's a few superstition photos that I really loved. Good job everyone!

Score has been slowly dropping all day, but the comments have been good. Always wonder about that combo. Anyhoo, hoping for a bounce.

Clawing my way toward mediocrity! First group of votes had me pegged at 4.7, hoping we can at least get into "fivey" territory. Bartender, give me another.

I'm just excited that it will only be 3 challenges for me, and I'll already be in the top 100...

I'm just waiting for mine to be asked to be validated - depending on the color tone, it's not always selective desat. I was able to do mine with full image adjustment layer of hue/saturation, taking out everying except what I needed :)

Same here, I'm waiting for mine to be validated.
Boy, the scores dropped a lot after I got the validation request. My hopes now is that the SC validates the photo as soon as possible - to avoid further score drops. I think most voters will not bother to re-vote on those photos that they assumed wasn't done legally under basic editing... sigh

I thought I'd lost you being at 6.80 this morning when you reported 6.32, but I guess we were destined to be together...

Mine's finally been validated.
Now...with already 150 votes on it already, the damage has been done.
Lets hope the remaining 100 voters can help lift the score a little back up :)

I'm a 6.XXX also...wish it would get alittle higher...but nothing wrong with anything in the 6 range
06/29/2006 05:53:01 AM · #75
Man so many6.somethings. I was hoping for a 6.someting but now i'm down to 5.5 :( I was told my photo would probabaly win even though it doesnt meet the challenge. Which is funny since most other commenters have said what a very well known superstition or legend I picked. but i'll take the compliment that it would probably win. not with the score it wont though.
