I don't know if registered users can do it but members can see who are their favorites photographers as measured by their votes in challenges. From your Profile page click on "view all" in the Favorites box mid-left. Then click on "Manage Your Favorites!"; then click on "View your statistically favorite photographers" to see who you have voted the highest in challenges. You probably ought to disregard the ones with a very low number of votes, maybe only consider those with double digits. It's another way to think about who's pictures you like best.


Why disregard the lower scored shots?
The best or most appealing shots don't always score high double digit numbers. There are some real gems out there that didn't win. :)

Does that mean the other eleven just picked one of your pics cuz they are your buds?


What other eleven???

When I view my profile and list of challenge entries it shows one pic with one person who has marked it a favourite and another where two people have marked it a favourite. How do I see these others?? Where are they?

Sorry Justine, I wasn't very clear there. I meant disregard the ones that appear on that list based on less than 10 entries. Someone who has received votes from you averaging 6.5 on 15 entries is probably more statistically valid --as a representatvie of the style of photography you prefer-- than someone who you have scored at 7.0 on just two entries. Hope this makes my point a little clearer.

The other 11 has grown to 12 as we speak!!!

When I look at your Profile page there is a box about halfway down on the left side that tells me that your photos have been selected as favs by others 13 times. See it?

But I don't HAVE any good images and I'm on your list... I think you're biased coz we're friends! :o)

HUGS


You may not have any good images as you say, but I see hard work being put into each photo. You also give awesome critiques!!! And yes, also because I know you personally(sort of). :-)

Just came across this yesterday and wasn`t too surprised to see that JJBeguin came out highest in my list closely followed by almost everybody in my favourites list.

WELL, Thanks Sonja... :o)

It's nice whatever the reason so... I'm not complaining!

Well... what a wonderful ego boost... I never imagined people would like the Venice ones enough to Favourite them!

Now if only I could sell some!!!!

Here's a Referral Link: //Kavey.dpcprints.com/?tr=FavouritesThread

Actually what would make life easier would be SOME WAY of being able to easily view who marked which ones of your images as Favourites without having to navigate to EVERY one one at a time and click into them...! Should I put that on website suggestions??

There really are some GREAT photographers on this site and I find the creativity inspiring!

Kavey, I just took a look at your portfolio and found some awesome shots of yours from Venice.

Here are a few that I like~

I love kiwi's shots and he is one of my favorites, but I would have to say I can not choose a #1 photographer. I like all 64 of them.

-+-+-+-+-
As Sonifo has pointed out there is vast group of very talented photographers here.
I love Kiwi and he knows I do.
I think we're really luck to be in their company. DPC is oozing with talented folks.


You are so sweet, Justine! Thank you! (hug)

This IS a feelgood day.
Had some great feedback on some of my Africa pics too!
At some point will load some into DPC Prints...

... and perhaps more especially for his occasional photographer "profiles;" his ability to analyze and describe others' work is among the best I've read here.

Not to mention he bears an uncanny resemblance to Tim Allen of Home Improvement fame.

David is far better looking then Tim. ;0)

Tim looks pretty good in his role as Buzz Lightyear ... not so good in The Santa Clause.

Gorsh, haven't done that in a while . . . hmmm . . .

Anyway, almost all of the top faves are faves of mine! It's good to see Heida getting more action. I've liked her stuff for a long time!

Ya think? And here I've been wanting to look like Tim Allen for years.

I think I may shave my beard one of these days, though . . .

Actually, and this is sooooooo appropriate: there are several folks in the top favorites who have NEVER WON A RIBBON. It just goes to show that ribbons aren't the alpha and omega of knowing if someone is a good photographer.
04/24/2004 12:01:28 AM · #48
kiwi has great pics. good stuff!!!
