I believe I've heard that the big reason for forcing photographers to vote for all submissions was to in a way limit submissions. I have some thoughts/ideas on this:
1) Require photgraphers to vote on x percentage (a cumulative average) So, if the average is 75% and I regularly vote on 100%, I could submit to a challenge and concievably vite on very few entries. Although, I would then have to again pick up the pace.
2) Require photographers to leave a comment for x number of entries. I think this ends up being more important than votes. I want comments!! My better pictures get more comments (thanks BTW) than my bad ones. I think it's easier for people to say I like this than to say I don't like this part of this.
3) Darn it, I had some other thoughts but they escaped me, sorry guys.
All in all I am VERY happy with the site! I've been using the since 1994, and this is the site that has most engaged and entrapped me. keep up the good work! |
