I think this is all pretty silly. I dug around the Galleries and didn't even see a link for Hot 20. I know it's supposed to exist because you can choose to vote for it when you look at someone's gallery images. I wonder why it's so hard to find the Hot 20?! OK, if people feel the need to vote for pictures, and give them ranks, fine. If you care about such things, then you should respect the votes of others. Otherwise, just forget the Hot 20. I never give a ranking to anyone's pictures any more. If I like a picture I will write some good, positive comments. If for some reason I don't like a picture, I will either post nothing, or some constructive criticism. I don't care whether any of my pictures get the Hot 20, or if I get a "good score." I don't even allow for a Numerical rating" in my new pictures. I do appreciate the supportive words of my friends here... And I do my best to let you know it. Ron
