Hi. I am looking for an overview of the meaning of all the alternative ribbons, people display in their profile. I mean ribbons lige the Posthumous ribbon. But there are also dozens of other.

I think it's important to give some visibility to other works not aligned with the mainstream taste, and give support to photographers with different views and approaches to photography.
So, after each challenge, you are encouraged to post here your personal winners, photos that did not won a DPC ribbon and are not align with the masses taste, but won your heart instead.
Attitude is a little thing that makes a big difference. Let̢۪s show some.
A warm comment in a photograph can do a lot.
Jorge.

If you want to regularly post images you think worthy of greater attention/appreciation than they seemed to get during the voting, you can create your own ribbon/medal, or just post the images with your comment as to why you think they are "better" than where they finished ...
Everybody's personal ribbons are based on their own criteria/judgement ...

I want to encourage some humor on DPC, so mine are given for injecting some humor into a non humorous challenge. Technical excellence has little bearing on them.

I haven't given any in a while. I only give them for humor in a challenge that does not have a naturally humorous topic, and I don't give them unless I have been able to vote 100%, so that all entries have a chance. I need to get on the stick. |

Ok now i think i understand. I thought that every different icon meant different things. But actually both posthumous, ,the negative camera icon and the icon from undieyatch means the same thing. They are given for pictures that they think are better than the rating.
And the shoehorns are a bit different.

I've sometimes had people think the shoehorn icon meant I thought their entry was shoehorned into the challenge topic. Actually, I started doing shoehorns as gag entries when I am at a loss for a genuinely good idea. Literally shoehorn entries. I have a nice collection now.

Apparently. The performance of that one surprised the heck out of me. I consider it my most successful entry to date. |

Actually,  Posthumous always awards his ribbons before turnover, before he knows how the picture was scored by the masses. |
