I'm not sure how the Hot 20 completely works. But I can suggest away to improve it. Most all the old time Brycers remember the Bryce Forum Gallery, they had a judging panel in place who would choose the select gallery winners. I suggest a rotating panel of judges who would review the top 50 rated images weekly/BI-weekly/monthly or what ever. The judges will rate the images from 0 ( worst ) to 5 ( best ) the top 20 will then be the images that first were rated best 50 by all members, then selected by the best ratings from the panel of judges. Of course a new panel of judges will be selected monthly or BI-monthly. This will insure that someone can not set up multi screen names and vote their own image into the Hot 20 or some one and all their buddies vote their image into the Hot 20. Criteria to be a judge can be set-up Example : Bryce forum member for 6 or 12 months, or previous Hot 20 artist. ect.... I'm sure there are many members here who would feel it to be an honor to be a judge.What do you mods & members think?
