To Entropic: " I'm pretty sure,archetype, that the system is completely unchanged, save for the replacement of words for numbers." Based on what Ive seen, I agree with you there. "Besides, if you look at the "Highest Rated" segment of the galleries, those images with more 10's ( Or Excellents ) gain priority over those with only a few 10's." Thats not quite accurate. An image that has 48 Excellents (10) and 1 Good (9) will be placed below an image with only 1 Excellent. If you doubt me, go and check out page 1093 of the Best Ranked list (at 18 thumbnails per page. Ive attached a link to that page.) There you will find all the works that were once at the top of the list, but were bumped into obscurity by a single persons ranking. "Besides, ratings are pretty meaningless, anyway.. it's the critique that matters, which we still need help with. ;)" I couldnt agree with you more. And thats the reason why Ive had only comments enabled on my work for a very long time.
