In the Poser Fun Stuff, clicking "most wanted" merely gives the items with the most accesses, which biases towards the items that have been there the longest, rather than the best items. Could this be done?:- For all the items, plot on a graph X = time since the model was uploaded versus Y = how many accesses. The shape of a curve least squares fitted through all those points will give an idea as to how number of accesses varies with time since uploaded. That will provide a way to remove from the "number of accesses" the bias caused by time since uploaded. Plus: there may be a point in a separate classification for "most popular non-sexy items"

i.e. if the least squares fitted curve proves to be n=f(t) (n = number of accesses, t = time since downloaded), then, for each item, popularity = n/f(t).

I'd considered something vaguly like that, maybe just divide number of downloads by days or something.

Outta respect for some of the remaining ol'timers, I'd say leave the current listing as TOTAL downloads. (I mean Sheesh! - like Zorbak was only around here for what, three weeks? - Pretty amazing accomplishments imho) But perhaps add a - "Top 10" - which lists the posts, new or old, getting the most hits in the last 30 days. (sure, just what you need, more cgi traffic) True, easy enough for us to see on the new stuff just by flipping back a few pages, but the instant recognition & gratification of making, then staying on "the list" might be a fun, motivating treat. -Pavlov Nance (And Anthony, while I can understand how a Literary Review magazine would hate to have their numbers compared to Hustler, however, who would want to take the heat for deciding what is "Sexy"? Is that dress too tight? Is that swimsuit too small? Is underwear inherently sexy? Should an innocuous hair model with a gratuitous topless thumbnail belong in the "sexy" category? How about items like Mobius groundbreaking Hi-Rez model - with the huge breasts? And, on the other hand, how would you feel if you posted a hot model of you girlfriend and she got moved to the "non-sexy" category! :-0 )
