Brian, i am not sure how you and PN are going to set the practical rules but i do think that is an excellent initiative and encouragement for many photographers. <p>

So I decided recently to review one by one and with evidences (systematic and -as much as possible- consistent ratings), entire portofolio of some photographers. You just give power to that type of initiative, reduce the fear (because there are threats) of some to do the same and limit the risk of some ridiculous `civil war` in this site.

<p>Few bad loser, whom happened also to be IMO good photographer in average, (although there is nothing much to win, and in some cases it is just fake win of ego) called it a `crusade`. I am not surprised to see here the same people, who were wondering why I take rating so seriously, to be very seriously commenting with retaliation warnings and other usual pathetic threats.

<p>To pay a subscription have nothing to do with rating. You pay, you can upload a high number of pictures and benefit from extra services, but it shouldnt certainly be a guarantee of `cocooning` in a Hall of Fake.

The following is not a work of fiction...

Now how would you appreciate this one...

Like in many fictions, there is a morality ... so I leave you with your set up your own conclusions.

The following is a work of fiction. Any similarities to any real persons is purely coincidental, and entirely a product of the author's imagination. Some use is made of existing locales, landmarks and institutions, but this use is fictional in nature and intent, and is not to be misconstrued as an attempt to disparage nor to recommend.

To m sv in particular and all other PNetter in general, I would propose to look at those 2 posting attentively and to evaluate them according to your personnal criteria. Objective here is not to critic taste but to question consistency, external and influential bias...

Sorry another request/suggestion for today.

<p>

Access to everybody's records of comments is great but would it be

possible to set a read-only access to the list of his/her records of

ratings as well.

<p>

Thanks

Hi!

In 95% of case "item" is the systematic title given to all commented

pictures. I am not sure it's a recent bug or not but not so long time

ago I remember that I could see original title for each commented

picture.

<p>

It is quite a headache when you are searching or reviewing previously

commented pictures....

<p>

So then, would it be possible to get at least the title. And even

better, the name of the photographer as well. It would be very helpful

<p>

Thanks
