oh wait, this is what you mean: "The Hot 20 is based on the number of votes by members an image has gotten in the previous 7 days. The button for voting is below the full size image after you click on the thumbnail. Thus, one member can only generate one view during the 7 day period. The main gallery does not track unique viewings, so it's count will always be higher. These ranking are updated in real time. Surfers that are not logged in can not vote. The vote button is not shown when you browse through the Hot 20." so if the hot20 button isn't showing, it means that it's already in the hot20. or rather that you got to it through the hot20 instead of the gallery. drac
