I can't believe my score went up 2 tenths of a point in like 3 hours - that's a lot! I'm SO excited to get 5th place for the first time ever. :)

Oh, and the sky is painted on a ceiling. I hope people know that. I think that's why they submitted it for disqualification... I'm SO EXCITED!

I hope this gives hope to the average joe's on here - Look through my other scores. LOL

I'm loving the comments...

My guess is this will be over a 5 when the final votes are tabulated(maybe before?). If that's the case, it may just be my highest scoring entry to date! :)

Actually better than expected on this one. Funny how the ones I expect to do poorly, score well. Crazy!!

Edit to add: not that 5.6 is scoring well. It is for me.

I'm hoping for maybe top 20. I can't believe the luck I've been having behind the camera these days. Three shots in a row above a 6... I hope I ribbon someday.

Status: Thank you for submitting your proof file. Your submission is being reviewed by the administrators and is pending further action.

Tons of great comments.. and I'm guessing by having to submit my orig a couple days ago that someone submitted a "DQ/verification" request.. which is perfectly fine, no broken rules, no date/time issues.
another top 10 maybe? please please please please :)

Well I'm just happy people even voted since I'm new to this lol.
10/24/2005 02:51:09 PM · #8
I have 12 positive and 0 negative comments so far. That should mean a 6 score, right? Nope - barely holding at 5.5

Does not meet the challenge Nazi's have struck again !!


The person who said DNMC on my (now 5.0) entry has been DQ'd EVERY SINGLE challenge entered, 4 of 4 for breaking the rules. Are you considering the source?
10/23/2005 07:21:51 PM · #13
I did get some nice comments though. And considering I didn't take a lot of time on it lol, I wasn't going to enter anything and did so at the last minute, I was happy to get a few nice ones. One in particular was a laugh.
10/23/2005 07:20:54 PM · #14
Well I use kodak easyshare for saving it. I think my mistake was saving it as "best for web". So my entry for "delicate" I saved at 75%. I tried to do it at 100% and when I entered it, I was told to try again as image was too big.

So we'll see what happens.
10/23/2005 07:00:10 PM · #15
Looks like its your first submission - what image editing software are you using? It is highly recommended to have your photograph at 640px on one side, while still keeping the image size as close to 150kb as possible.

This tutorial should be useful:

The main comment I got out was pic needs to be bigger.

10/23/2005 03:33:08 PM · #17
I gotta laugh, have to LOL!! I had four comments before the pic reached 50 votes, course went another hundred votes before the next comment LOL. Now at 8 comments, two of which state outright great job, great pic, etc. Couple more hint at it being a good picture, with the ONLY critique I have received is "not quite in focus enough for me" and "background a little distracting". Other comments are all on the actual subject of my photo!! So, what would you think the score is? Maybe around 6 ? Nope, 5.5??? Nope, 5.0 getting warmer, just dropped under 4.5!!! ?? Yeppers!
LOL Seems my taste is only for a select few??? Can rationilize it that way anyway LOL. Oh well, bring on delicate whites!! LOL

Sheesh..
