I figured out what the problem is with the votes I'm getting. I just ran across this illustration and the accompanying caption at ARS Technica:

I thought my entry was really good, but it must be one of those that does not appeal to many. When I figure out the secret, I'm selling it to the highest bidder. Some high votes balanced out by a bunch of 4's and 5's.

I think alot of voters are being too technical and litteral in the meaning of patters and ontop of that they are expecting a WOW picture. Im not doing too well in this category either. I guess mine wasnt strong enough for some.

You think they are looking for a photo OF a pattern instead of the pattern being just a major element of the image? I wonder if using a title that pointed out what the pattern was would make it score higher?

I'll trade - I'm getting some 4's and 5's balanced by a bunch of 2's and 3's. :-)

Apparently some of my artistic decisions are being mistaken for technical mistakes. Oh well, live and learn.

:-( It's a sweet pic, philistine voters need to be beaten over the head with a pattern, though. :-P
