My photo is a love/hate relationship. One second my score is ok, next it's dropped .3. My photo went from X.3 - X.7 in three hours!! Then back down again, and up again. Oh well...19 comments and some very helpful info are much appreciated. Thanks to everyone leaving comments. Good luck in the challenge. ~Heather~
"sorry, it reminds me of one of those dolls they use in child sex abuse investigations. yuck"
I think these type comments are neither constructive nor necessary. My photo must be, at minimum, average, to have illicited feelings of "yuck." (guess that is better than nothing) I still can't appreciate the comment though. ;-(

That must be the same one who wrote "sorry I don't get it". Unfortunately I can't show you how weired that comment is without giving away my picture. *sigh -- shakes head sadly*
I have to say that I may be wreaking havoc on the system and on your score if you're one of the swing photos. Here's what I did:
I scored each one as I thought appropriate without consideration to the others, making notes of which got what. Then I changed them all to one and made a comment that said "HOW UNORIGINAL, 1."
...just kidding.
but I did change them all to ones for a few minutes so they'd be grouped together and I could analyze the form, composition, etc as a study on "swing". I then scored them all without consideration to the previous score I'd assigned (and believe me there were too many to remember which got what, except for my favorite few). Then I compared my two scores for each photo and made minor score adjustments as I thought necessary.
So, it was interesting for me, and I think I scored them more accurately as a result, but if you're a swing photo, I may have caused you some minor point fluctuation in the past two hours. Sorry.
Just to let you know I take all week to do my voting. My first votes are just a glance and a general vote and afterwords i'll sort them into the 1-10 scale.
