Ugh, I am thinking voters are penalizing the images because of the boring subject. I know some have come out to be creative, but taking photos of glasses is just not an interesting subject. :(

Well, I know that's what the deal is with mine. I didn't really have any creative ideas. Well actually, I did, but I didn't have all the needed props.
My grandson has this wonderful sticky-up hair that looks like Calvin's and I did have a toy ray gun, but could not find appropriate glasses. He also loves making these over-the-top tough guy faces. It would have been perfect.

6.1 may well be a ribbon. |

You have rated 133 of 134 images (99%) in this challenge.
You have commented on 10 images (7%) in this challenge.
You have given an average score of 5.7068.
It's humbling to see what some other folks can do with this subject.
So far my score is just about what I expected:

I'll take a top 20! Not a problem! : >)

I've had some really nice comments but, the score just isn't reflecting the comments. :(
I really don't think it deserves this low a score. I'm really discouraged.

I dropped down a bit myself recently...but no biggie.
I don't know why I haven't played around on this site way before now! Seems to me there are a bunch of fun people here!
Oh wait....now I remember...you guys scared me with your excellent photography!

I don't think I'm gonna break the 6's this time. It peaked at 5.89 and then steadily is dropping. Just wish people would actually crique when they give a lower score so I know WHY it isn't appealing to them. I can't learn if I don't know what to correct.

I really try to tell everyone what I think and try to get a 100% comment rating but I at the very least try and tell people why if I am voting the way I am if it is a 5 or under. That's what the site's all about in my opinion. Well- that and the ribbons. It's ALL about the RIBBONS!! :)

I had to leave a comment on the only 1 I gave out in this challenge, and was fully expecting to get a reactionary PM about it, but they marked it helpful so I salute their thick skin. |

I'm sure that they've looked up your name and are sticking pins in a voodoo doll with your name on it! ;-)
(No, it wasn't me. ;-) I'd have pm'd you! ;-P ) |

You're probably not far off, my Best of 2008 score has gone from 5.565 to 5.493 in the last few hours alone. |
