Don't use that formula. It's dumb. It divides by the number of times you are selected as favorite photographer. In other words, it penalizes you for being favorited. Use my formula, which penalizes you for scoring high!

Then both formulas are flawed. To be truly famous, you should be penalized for adding photographers and photos to your own favorites list. Famous people don't recognize others. Sheesh.

I think I made up my own formula. It makes me feel more famous. :P

ok.. well I don't even have enough numbers to bother with any formula. I know I suck... but can I please pay someone to pick some of my horrible images as favorites so I can at least rate on the fame-o-meter, cause I'm feeling like the most un-famous person on this site right now, and I don't LIKE IT!! :(

Why do the formulas have to be so crazy difficult anyway?

You want an easy one....

I got 5.58, your math is off a bit... perhaps? 5.989/1,073,208

How did you figure that. 5.9890 divided by 1,073,208 = 0.0000055.

Are you using some kind of crazy inverted upside down Australia calculator? ;)

ahh, heck, my apologies. I'm blind to the ways of the negative connotation at the end of 5.58 (or, at least, the fact that windows calculator isn't powerful enough to divide these numbers correctly. But doing a 5.9 / 1,000,000 works better.)

5. Round to nearest integer.

hmmm, let's see here....um, 1.

That must mean...I'm #1 !!!

Thank you very much, I'll be here all week.

Maybe it'll be as famous as the Ken Rockwell - Genius or Fool? thread. Only about 80,000+ views to catch up to it.

If you notice, windows calc will give you a figure of: 5.5804652965687918837727635276666e-6.
That e-6 at the end of that number is important. It means that the number isn't actually 5.58. It means that it's 0.00000558. Basically an error saying, "we can't calculate this". Of course, someone with a better understanding of actual maths and calculators can confirm and/or correct me on this. (originally, I'd made the same mistake and thought it was 5.580 too, but when I did a simpler calculation of 5.9 (rounded up), and 1,000,000 (rounded down), I got 0.0000059. Which confirmed that the 5.58 with the e-6 must actually be closer to 0.00000558.)

Clowns are cool... Now what is scary is seeing Santa Claus on Halloween.

Like I said, I wanted it simple... though suppose there is no simple method.

Famous is known, not number of views, or average vote. Has nothing to do with favorites or anything. It is simply being known.

Not really a way to find out how famous one is without asking everyone if they know them.

So suppose, if one person knows you, you are famous enough for one.

p.s. to add, I just ignored the long number and took two spots, so my fault for being a dork.
