Thanks for the new features Drew and Langdon! I think you put a lot of effort in this. I like how the site keeps evolving. The image drop downs are a neat way to implement thumbs into the profile page!
Thank you thank you thank you for all the fabulous new features!
I love the improvements to the portfolio display area and the honorable mention section.
I have a question though... Do you get to see the disqualified images only for recent challenges? I don't see DQ's on challenges before "Movie Titles".

Right. We announced in January that this would be the new procedure so this is only retroactively applied to the point that we made the announcement.

To be specific, this applies to Challenge 297 and later, or challenge whose Submission Phase began on or after 03 January 2005.
We may implement an "opt-in" feature where photographers who had entries disqualified in earlier challenges may elect to have them shown, but this will require some slight coding and database changes to make this happen.
Great job on the new features... Ones I like:
1-Display of average score with highest rated photographs
2-Various sort options on profile page
3-Ability to pick 10 portfolio images for profile page display
4-Ability to display thumbnails on challenge entries page
5-Honorable mention display and top 10 star display
I'd recommend two small changes next time the profile page gets tweaked:
One change to the "Challenge Entries" area would be expanding the title description field to be at least the width of a 640 pixel wide landscape thumbnail display, maybe a little wider.
Exanding the title display area a little and shrinking the challenge title area a little to make room for it makes for a better balanced display. Many entry titles are much wider that the area provided but most challenge titles don't even get remotely close to the full width of space allowed for them.
Two, you could make the display of thumbnails in the challenge entries area a selectable option to display all thumbnails. That option would be for the viewer when viewing their own or other people's profiles. I always want to see the thumbnail on the challenge entries area when looking at other photographer's works.
