Not sure if it's a local (my PC) problem or a site problem, but when use my keyboard arrows (pressing ALT-) every entry I see gets a 9 (rechecking my voting)! I'm sure there are not many complaints about that, but am I the only one having that "problem"?

For what purpose are you pressing that key commbination?

I just tried it on my mac laptop and pressing the right arrow key by itself results in my scoring the photo a 9.

eta:
Another thing I just noticed is pressing the left arrow key to go back to the previous picture no longer works.

That key combination has always worked to advance to the next image without voting on the current one.

I can also confirm that it's doling out nines willy-nilly now.

ETA: Actually I was NOT doing ALT+ but double . Same thing.

OK -- this may have to do with re-coding of the voting page to accomodate the larger entry sizes and consequent (occasional) re-sizing.

Please submit a ticket directly to Langdon (Help > Contact Us > DPC Administrative Ticket) reporting the problem(s) in as much detail as possible. Thanks.

I think I've always used RightArrow>Enter -- I try to avoid the ALT key when I can, and "entering" my choice feels more intuitive to me, besides giving me a chance to reconsider ....

Everyone feel free to hit the right arrow when you're on my photo in the voting now :)

I noticed this last night when I was voting the Aftermath challenge, but I thought it was me. Didn't know how I'd managed it, though. First time through I use the numbers pad and give fully half the entries a 6. That's pretty much my top score first time through and just means I want to reconsider the image. Went through again and bumped a very few. Refreshed. Had a wad of 6's that I had now gone through twice so I pretty much knew how I felt about them. decided to go through looking for more to bump, this time using the arrow key. Imagine my surprise when I refreshed at the end and had a whole slew of 9's, no 8's, two or three 7's, and no 6's at all. All my 6's had mysteriously turned to 9's. I fixed it, but since I thought it was my own ignorance or clumsiness or something, I didn't report it.
