Perhaps this is way too much to ask and too much work to set up ... tossing an idea out there, though: |

To me this 'favorites ' are a mystery even now. I don't know how much they count in the top 5 process, but from what I've read and noticed, not everybody uses them for selecting pics that they want to see in Top5. Usually, people use favorites to keep a pic they'd like to come back to, even when they are sure the pic won't make it to the top5...I must confess, I myslef do this pretty often and it's because what Five said: I want to make sure it's the best selection for that month. So it's very easy to forget about a pic that did get your attention let's say...20 days ago...On the other hand, Top5 has 5 positions for each category so I see no reason not to favorite more than 5 pics a month... |

I pick favorites because I like the picture and want it in, what I call my TD album! lol I selected some of my kids pictures and I know they are no way in the running for Top 5. |

Belladonis, I pick favorites based images that strike me as interesting and I want to remember to go back to them, even if they are not likely to be Top 5. I guess that's why I want more of them. Favorites solved the intentional down-voting problem (for the most part) by reducing the incentive. I'm glad they count for Top 5. |

I follow my instincts. I feel I want to favorite a pic and then I do so. If I still have places, they are chosen ,if not I have to leave them out. I can't wait until the end of the month. That would be a lot of work. |

I prefer to copy the addresses of any drawings that I would like to see in Top 5, to a personal file. I can add to them as the month progresses. On or near the last day of the month, I narrow them down to 5 drawings in each category, irrespective of whether they can win or not. I use my favourites for the ones that please me the most. |

Thanks you all of you above as this has made very interesting reading for me I must be a dumbo (don't answer that!) I did not realise that favourites were used in this way thought was just for us to mark our own personal favs so thank you once again I have learnt something else about TD and how it works. Is there somewhere on the site that explains all these 'rules' if so point me in the right direction. |

Oops - minus one 'you' at beginning! |

hmmm... well........ they aren't so much "rules" (no doubt you suspected that when putting the term in quotes yourself) as principles we've worked out for ourselves. |

I really like the idea of an 'album' in addition to 'favorites' - and I also like the idea of being able to order favourites for the end of month 'Top 5'. |

Five favorites are hard to choose...I have replaced favorites too often; maybe we could narrow it down to 10 favs per theme? and/or an album would be wonderful unless it would overload the server... |

I very much like Login's idea think might try this as especially with the new 'beads' so many wonderful works have been produced they all deserve a place! The choice is so diffucult - I personally do not want to have to change my favourites but think I am being greedy. |

Choosing where to allocate my 'favourites' is always a difficult decision, but this month beads is giving me an enormous problem. There are so many imaginative and clever drawings ... a BIG dilemma. |

The brilliant pictures being created in beads are making it harder and harder to select five favourites each month. I've already collected 39 bead pictures for April, all worthy of a place in Top 5. I now have the difficult job dwindling them down to five, before pinning the red hearts on them. With still four days to go, I have to start the pruning process. Lawks a lummy ... where to start! |

I agree Login there have been some absolute masterpieces and it is going to be so hard to choose - they all deserve to be there. |
