Consider commenting long before you reach a top 10% in a challenge. First, you are the world expert on how you see each image. Your comments don't need to address fine technical points when there is so much in the artistic realm to comment on (which many consider more important anyway). Second, you will find that looking carefully at an image to figure out which aspects work well for you and to formulate in words the impact of an image on you will quickly make you more thoughtful about your own images, and may even accelerate your arrival in the top 10%. Third, fresh eyes and fresh perspective can make your contributions much more valuable than stale group-think.

Since this is also a scoring thread, I'll register happinesss at rising from 5.2xx after 25 votes (very hard to understand) to 5.8xxx after 98. Expected (and hoped for) higher -- but only a few more days to wait for the final outcome. Have voted on all but mine and commented on 10%. Appreciate the three comments received.

Ah, JulietNN, I got such a sincere comment on my Hidden Gem I was genuinely moved. Until I saw it word for word on about 20 other entries, which really wasn't such a lot considering the size of the challenge. Alas, so many gems remained hidden to this commenter that I am still genuinely moved.


Opps, would have helped if I had even commented on ONE entry in that challenge.

I have copied and pasted as well as stated before, not denying it

Prediction - a large spike in profile views for JulietNN. :-D

ETA - 17883 (so I can see if prediction is correct). :-P

Not doing as well as I had hoped, but I also have some flaws that I wish I would have corrected before entering, but ran out of time. So I guess my score is better then it could be!

I might as well pipe up here: We don't look well upon cut and paste, but normally this means "nice shot" or something like that. Re-using certain phrases, or sentences while still being relevant to the shot is certainly ok. Why bother looking at what someone gave someone else? If you like the comment and it helps you, then its good.

I've never seen a rise like this, not sure if the drop is coming or if it will hold.

Very happy with my score...I haven't seen a '6' score in FOREVER! Is it possible to keep rising and hit the mark?!

Thankyou Tom, your comments inspire the score at least 1 more point.
05/05/2009 05:07:31 PM · #348
1st 50 votes averaged 5.4, second 50 votes averaged 6.7 so, if the next 50 average 6.2 I'll have a 6.1 and the top slot for my lens of choice for this shot :)
