Well the Hot20 is voted in, not by rankings or page clicks, but people physically have to click the "Vote for this image" button. I agree that the rankings system is useless, and the comments tab is rarely used for what it's meant for (when it is, the artist usually gets offended that someone thinks their work isn't perfect, and proceeeds to tell them to fuck off). As for a Juried Gallery, you know yourself how many new images pass through each day in the galleries. Would you personally be willing at the end of each day or each week, to go through each and every single image just to pick your 10 favourites? Me thinks any normal person would have a brain fart just at the thought of all that useless work. The voting system, is fine, because if you don't want to vote for an image, you don't, and if you don't care about the voting system, you don't vote. As for the Hot 20 being a joke, maybe so in the Poser gallery becase there are somethinng like 30 submissions every 20 minutes, but most of the other galleries have a much slower flow so we can all have a nice look through. As for the Hot 20, I get bored personally of seeing the same images for so long, so I usually just click the What's New link in the 2D or Photo galleries, and get nice refreshing images every day.
