		| My 5.27 start confirms me that DPC voters always love standard images and rarely appreciate something even slightly different from that. This is not a problem. Challenges are an inspiration for me, so I'm not always interested in the score if I have created an image I like very much :) |

 I think I got mine earlier when I went from a 6.7 to a 6.4 in one vote. |

 LOL... They don't quite realize that if everyone gets a one then their vote doesn't count (except their pic gets a slight boost). 
 
 I often wonder about people trying manipulate scores on this site. To be honest, I go by the non-participant score at the end. I also dig the comments. 
 
 Mine is not doing so well this time...

 Hmm, well I wasn't expecting much... the voting pattern's interesting though; started just above 5, began touching 6 around 12 votes, then down to 5.1, now back up again slightly. Sure it's only the first few votes but I _hope_ that means it's getting some high votes. That's always more rewarding than just seeing a sea of mediocrity once I look at votes received come challenge end =). |

 Love what you had to say. :)  
 
 If one wants to get higher votes in DPC...here's some tips to keep in mind in your composition...
 
 Get on a plane and find the most exotic scenery you can find (preferrably an ocean...unless you already live in such a place).  
 
 Set up a shot of a bee on a flower, complete with water drops.  Make sure that something falls into some sort of liquid in this shot, catching the splash brilliantly and, if you can...throw in a very physically fit nude model or two for good measure.
 
 LOL ;)
 
 Joking
 
 But...well...even in joking, there's some truth to it. |

 This should be a very good week. I'm on track to replace two of my top five. One of them I don't really want to see on my top five but DPC voters apparently do :) |
