I could live with this... :-)

I had exactly the same numbers when I hit 10 votes. And until moments ago, I was above 6 but some mean !@#$#4 $#@%$ @#$%#$*^ just gave me a one and pushed me down to 5.73.

The last 7 voters have been brutal. Come on guys it's one of my best pics. Can you get DNMC votes in a Free Study? :P

Is there a way to cancel, or unsubmit, my photo? This is ridiculous... The quality of my photo is exceptional, yet my score is 5.5. It's a FREE STUDY for crying out loud, which implies to me to judge the photo based on how technically sound it is. I am really fed up with this site and the people that vote without care. I'm now thinking comments should be required.

I really, really like this photo. Only problem is on the DPC background, it seems a bit oversaturated. But I still really, really like it. I hope it stays in the 5.5 range.

Your average vote cast is 3.65 - therefore your 5.5 score is WAY above what YOU must consider average - reason to celebrate, I'd say!

I don't understand... my average vote cast is 3.65, what does that have to do with my score?

I assume that was a rhetorical question.

I don't understand where my average vote cast comes into play with my score. I score photos based soley on how technically sound they are; this has no relation to the score of my photo.

Let me explain for Karin. When you vote, your average vote that you cast is essentially a 4. You have a 5.5 and you're complaining about your current score yet you yourself hand out low scores?

Like I said, it's still early in the voting process.

I give credit where credit is due, and honestly while there are some really great photos on this site, there are also some really horrible ones; it just so happens that the horrible ones outweight the great ones.

I started to answer this, but deleted it again. It's better this way.
