I don't mind people voting my images low, but when you make a %$# DAMN idiotic comment that you don't like the title then vote it down because of that, it pisses me off!

OK, I feel better now.

Vote on the damn image, not the damn title!

The title is part of the image, the title can dictate how you want the viewer to percieve your picture. Of course you shouldn't vote on a title alone but the title is part of what i consider because it is part of the messege/impression sent by the piece of artwork.

Think for yourself man! The image should speak not the damn title! From now on, I'm titling all my images "..."

Sounds like a plan, if you don't want the title to say something then don't title it.

Today is better than yesterday. Still hoping to hit 6.6 at some point. Never had such an up and down voting pattern. Usually my score hits a low point early in the week then slowly climbs up towards the end of the week. This challenge has been all over the place. It's enough to make me crazy.

I feel your pain but keep in mind that they MAY not have voted down even though they hated the title. i will often say something negative about a border but in almost every case i don't vote down for it.

I don't usually try and track votes, but I especially noticed the last one I got because it raised my score by 0.0001 ....

Agree. I won't vote down for a title or a border but I will vote up for a very appropriate title. If I comment on not liking a border or a title, it's to let the submitter know that it could be a reason they aren't getting the score they think they should be.

Be careful. I thought once giving a catchy little title to one of my photos would help the photo. Then I got a critique from one of the critique members and they slam blasted me for making such a cutesy title and told me that a photo should stand on its own merit. So you can't win.

It's not unusual, as we have some members who are married, others that are friends, some go out and shoot together. So, you'll find that quite a bit.

I think some are balancing out there vote pattern at the last minute of the challenge by putting in a lot of 4 and 5 votes. I guess to balance out the low or high votes they gave out earlier in the challenge. As a result many entries have dropped. I have went down .1500 since in the last 12 hours. More votes in the last 12 hours than the prior two days. Go figure!

DPL is basically over so more votes will start to be given.
