marg, it is a very difficult thing to find a perfect solution to. due to the nature of the site and people's right to rate pictures as they wish, there will always be users who will give low ratings. |

See my "I do not care" post in the other forum... My eye of the tiger (115 votes)...(4.8 rating) not only has it received a lot of votes, but it must own the honor of the most 1 votes received to date... I do believe that it's low average was over looked durring November because it still received top 5 honors... So I am sure there must be exceptions to the rules... But as I said... See my "I do not care" post... |

One solution would be to just have "vote or no vote". If you like a picture you vote for it, if you don't you just move on. I usually do this anyway; if I like a picture I give it a 5. If I don't, I just don't vote. It would do away with one person being able to drop the ratings on the best pictures. |

I agree! I do the same thing and never even look at the highest rated pics as I feel it is horribly inaccurate due to malicious intent. |

I agree. I only give out 5 stars. There are too many young kids who play on here (like my 8yo), and I'd hate to discourage a budding artist just because he's not to the same standard as some with more honed skills! |

Same here... I give 5 or pass. If it hadn't attracted Griefers, a 5 pt scale could've been useful and I'd occasionally use a 4 or 3 (often on my own!). |

Qsilv.. totally agree.. just make it accumulative (how hard is that ?) and a pic that got 5*+5*+5*+1* would be higher rated than a pic that just got 5*. |

I have a question, if I can ask - I see some pictures (I'm not an expert) that to me are OK, but they're given all these comments and a decent rating. Then, I see a picture that is really nice and apparently took alot of time to do and it doesn't even get that many comments or votes. What does the "judging" look for and how do they decide what is good and what merits the higher ratings? |

I'm new here but let me take a stab at this: |

I also think a lot of us get into the habit of chatting with other people that we feel we've gotten to know in the comment area. I might or might not comment on a spectacular drawing by a new member but I will definitely comment on just about anything matthew does, good, bad, or ugly. |

...what Baldur said (guilty look...) tho I do fairly regularly (couple/three times a week) browse around and comment on anything that intrigues me. |

Thanks for your comments and suggestions on the ratings. |

Rachel.. that would be stunning ! |
||
16. 15 Jan 2009 02:20 | ||
sorry, I meant a mini-Top 5 based on an accumulative score ! |

It would also be helpful to be able to add our favorite artists to our profile or enable a search feature to search for artists. |
||

That's a great idea! |
||

I have to credit Qsilv for the original idea. |

(slips a fiver to cutegrl289) ...BUT... I hasten to add, I'd love for that SEARCH feature to work on other terms, not just names. |
