/begin rant

I have a couple of comments on my entry that suggest the title of my image "should be XXXXXXXX" even though what is being suggested ISN'T A SONG ON THE LIST. I mean, sure, there are a lot of other things the picture could be titled, but FOR THE LOVE OF PETE if you're gonna suggest a title, please let it be on the EVER LOVIN' list of songs to choose from!!!!!

/end rant

Thanks, I feel better now. ;)

There is some of that for sure -- learning to please the voting crowd, but in doing that, I think you really learn alot that makes your photography better: i.e., you learn to pay attention to the little things that you learn really bug them, like "not sharp enough", tilted horizons, too much (or too little) processing, "wow factor". And when you think about it -- that's what photographers do with their work anyway is use their own artistic expression to either sell ther work, or please somebody with it.



I fully agree here, its not been long for me here but yes comments and opinions does give you an alternate perspective, how people perceive your pictures maybe be different from how you try to make them look. Unless off course if we take photographs for our own pleasure and for our own eyes only or we are a 'Dali'

You may get over the 6 at rollover. Sometimes the vote scrubber is kind, sometimes it is evil.

Various algorithms are run at rollover to remove votes from voters where certain "patterns" are detected such as someone who votes everybody a 1 in order to help their own entry. It often means 4-5 votes are removed from each entry.

The "Vote Scrubber" is the script that clears all the non-counting votes from the system. So if a user has voted for less than the minimum 20% of the pics in that challenge, his/her votes are cleared out. Often those are the nasty votes too.
