I wouldn't mind some feedback if anyone feels like commenting. I'm pretty sure the picture is plain ol boring, but more insight would be nice.

pm me if you want info :)

Well he's right, but we also get over it. Depends on what those comments and scores are. I had a pleasant exchange with a member today that got one of my semi-famous "jpeg compression" comments when I was voting. They ended up sending me a couple of outtakes from the same session to see how I would edit it. They actually had some very good shots to work from but don't know a lot about post processing. It was productive and I enjoyed it. Hope it was equally useful to them.

As long as the person offering is either not voting in the challenge at all, or agrees not to change their vote.

yup.
I was concerned about this a while ago and asked the site council about it and they said it was fine provided votes do not change and the info stays only in the message thread

Edit-rats, beaten to it.

I've done this a few times. Usually, the member has finished voting the challenge and is offering more feedback to those that desire it. When I do this, the deal is that I will not change my vote, but I will explain why I gave that vote.

Edit: Not quick enough.

now that 6 is gonna get scrubbed, along with the 1s and 2s he gave some of you. good for you guys, but not for me. :(


He couldn't have voted as it's a members challenge and he was a registered user, not a member.


oh. thanks, i didn't realise. :)

Now back to scores.
Ave vote: 5.3

Ho-humm.....

Finally got a decent comment on my 4.7 Black and White. It was right on target and will take the advice into the future.

AWESOME challenge, peeps! I have to go back and do some bumping up, but I will have to admit that my lowly entry deserves the bottom 5% here. You guys did great work!
04/05/2011 11:38:24 PM · #288
@ Crowis - you should go back and look at the first entry of the site's golden children. I cannot tell you how much I feel I have grown in both my shooting and my editing, as a result of participating on this site. If you have not already entered some side challenges, that is where the real growth (and fun) happens.

@ Deb - I concur. Awesome challenge. Even if my "no" comments got deleted.

I got a Nice Shot comment from him and it's still there..???

The comments are still there, yes. But if you click on his name the user's account has been deleted.
It's actually sorta annoying. It screwed with my received comments on my profile--
Received: 386
Helpful: 382
There's a difference here of four despite there being 5 comments not marked as helpful, all written by myself.

This aggression will not abide! :)

Eep! Estimating 85 votes that's a total difference of 2. Nothing in it at all!

Not good but at least I'm not embarrassed. :P
04/06/2011 07:42:23 PM · #296
LOL! I'm embarrassed.

I acknowledged that you guys did a great job, but c'mon, folks, mine is not a sub-5. Really. It should at least be a 5.1 for cryin' out loud!
04/06/2011 07:54:03 PM · #297
Mine̢۪s a sub 5 (was heading for a sub 4 at one stage) but I̢۪m not embarrassed as I̢۪m proud of what I produced. I̢۪m also not surprised or disappointed at the voter̢۪s reaction. Thanks NiallOTuama for your wonderful comment and suggestions.

I haven't participated for a very long time (going on two years), so I'm happy to see a score like this!

Hah! Mine should be a sub-5. Really. It shouldn't even be close to a 5.1. ;)
