Hi all, i want to expose you, some of my ideas to improve the way to charts: When an image goes on the charts, it gains an overboost of visibility that we can ignore, and so i think we can use our best will, to make charting close to the best way it can to be. By the fact the charts is not perfect, i feel that some simple ideas could make "the charts" a little less distance from a good way. In the first place of most viewed most comments and so on, infact, there are image at least older of 3 years... 3d software and 3d arts are doing giant step in the last 3 years, and this probably shift higher the sense of what an "amazing image" could be. May be that a stunning image of 1999 viewed with the eyes of 2004 is only a good image. We can better judge most viewed most commented and best rankings, simply By subdivide images for years: most viewed in 2002 most viewed in 2003 most viewed in 2004 etc etc etc In that way we gain both the storic of the more fantastic image of the past years, and both to give the right visibility to new stunning works that otherwise can never go in the charts (that's why the impossibility to give 50000 viewings in a contest where the number of image posted is clearly double or triple of the past!) Also Hot20 can huge improved by use a simple formula: An image reach a total of point composed by adding this 3 wheighted parameters: 30% to votes, 20% to number of viewing , and 50% of average of ranking. This can surely avoid some cases i saw in the last days, where an image that going an overall ranking of "nice" goes on hot20! And also if someone disable ranking... the image cannot go on the H20. I say this words, because often i see some unbalanced situation in the charts... My only will is to post my feel of how the thing could go better. Not to make flame or to disrupt. Sorry for my english I hope my sugest can be helpful to improve a situation that in my honestly opinion (and not only the mine) needs to be improved. Best regards MAX
