Quote - The sad thing is now that I have turned off my ratings, that person hasn't commented on my last 3 images! Go figure!

You have now his name... Let's find out the real-life name and adress and... be creative. ^.^

Much more than the current rating system I would prefer a list, some control boxes, of good/bad things that people find in a picture and click on that list.
Let there be 30 or 50 entries in this list that describe attributes of an image.

One can now instead of writing a long critical comment click in the list what is applicable and add the things that are not on the list. The list would work well because most pictures suffer from the same technical shortcomings.
The hug-club prolly ignores this feature because it requires to spent a few seconds looking at a picture.
