I've been sitting here for the past hour looking through the fractal gallery and it suddenly came to me. I had an epiphany, a moment of true insight and everything became clear to me, and I knew what I had to do. Something so radical, that it will never be recognized as a solution to a problem that plagues Renderosity...A curse so foul and corrupting that anyone who steps through the doors of this web-site is instantaneously infected! What is this diabolical curse that has been placed upon everyone that enters into this artists sanctuary? The total inability to rank any image they look at as anything other than 'Excellent!'. My radical solution to this supernatural phenomenon is... Delete the other nine rankings so that no-one can vote anything other than 'Excellent!'. I know!!!...I thought the same thing you are thinking right now! "Matt, you're a freaking genius!". Take away everyones ability to make a free conscious choice to vote with their heart and turn them into drones...Force them to vote 'Excellent!' every time they look at an image and hopefully after a few years of having no choice and no free will to do anything but comply, then, and just maybe then...People will complain about not having a choice and will want the staff at Renderosity to implement a ranking system that gives them the ability to mark images as they think they deserve... This was my epiphany. P.S. Since I don't ask for rankings on my images and I very rarely give them on other peoples images, and since I pretty much totally disagree with the whole ranking system...It really makes no difference to me at all...But writing this this sure did cure my boredom... Now i'm going down the pub...Seeya. Matt.
