<p>Back in May 2014 I reported an issue with the Google +1 button. (<a href="/site-help-forum/00cb94">http://www.photo.net/site-help-forum/00cb94</a>) Glenn Palm did say he would look into it and for a while the issue was resolved. However, there is now a similar issue with the +1 button. Instead of showing someone else' photograph, it shows an image which appears to be related to photo.net articles.</p>

<p>@Anders. Yes! Repeating questions and requests can work. Indeed, the more people that ask for something, the chances of something being implemented increases. I hope more people will ask for this feature to be implemented.</p>

<p>When commenting on photograph you are given a short time to edit the post before it is set in stone. It would be a good idea if this time limit could also be applied to critique requests. I am sure I have asked this before but nothing seems to have been done about it. I bring it up again as I have just noticed a rather silly typo on my latest critique request. I guess I could delete the photograph and re-submit it but that does cause other problems. </p>

<p>When commenting on photos we are give a short time to edit our comments before they are 'set in stone.' It would be good if we could also edit the critique request for a short time after requesting one. As you might imagine, this request has come as a result of my own stupidity. (There is a typo in my latest critique request.)</p>

<p>Personally speaking I think leaving any rating without a comment is simply rude. That is not to say I think you deserve any hate mail. However, I find a few words go a lot further than an arbitrary click of the mouse.</p>
-
<p>I often search the top rated photos to see what people like to rate or comment on. I have noticed that depending on what you search for, the data is not consistent.</p>
<p>For example when searching for ALL the top rated photos in the last 3 days on number of comments, the result returns the top graphic. When searching only NUDES in the last 3 days on number of comments, the result returns the bottom graphic. Why the anomaly?</p><div>

<p>For my latest submission 'Fear of Light' I thought I would hit the Google +1 button. However the preview photograph that showed up was not mine. Does anyone have any idea how this could happen. It has never happened before.</p><div></div>

<p>You can. Delete the photo and re-submit it. I will admit this method is a bit cumbersome. I have often wanted to correct typos. I do think 15 minutes to correct typos would be good just as is the case when commenting on photos. (I think it is 15 minutes anyway.)</p>
-
<p>If depends on the criteria for top rated photos you selected. If you selected '24 hours' and 'number of comments' it is quite possible that many photos with one or two comments would appear in the top rated photos gallery.</p>
-
<p>From the size (resolution) of the images you have uploaded here, I would doubt anyone would try to make money out of them. Yes! They may steal them but what are they going to do with them? Disabling the right click function doesn't always seem to work for some reason. However, as I am sure the admins here will tell you, any image that appears here can be stolen. </p>
-
<p>People who rate without commenting just tell you they know how to use a mouse. A rating without any comment is meaningless. The operators of this site seem to place an importance on ratings. It is comments that count and I would encourage anyone reading this to comment on image before rating it.</p>
-
<p>All ratings are anonymous. You can see who has rated your photos providing at least 5 people have rated a photo but what you can't see is who gave you what.</p>
-
<p>It is working for me now too. It wasn't when I made my last comment. Maybe someone has seen this post and fixed the bug.</p>
-
<p>I can still download your images. (Not that I have.)</p>
-
<p>This may be slightly off topic but wouldn't this be a good time to disable the 'right click.' Yes! If someone wants to pull a photo from this site (or any site) they can. However I am quite sure the practice would be significantly reduced if this was implemented. I never fully understood why this was never implemented. Many have asked for this before. I can only assume that the powers at p.net feel that the ability to 'steal' image readily attracts more people to the site. I appreciate there is a menu function in 'My Workspace' to enable / disable this but as I far as I can see, it doesn't work.</p>

<p>Most of my photos require models but at the end of the day this is a photograph site, not a model site. There are plenty of sites out there that models looking for photographers post to.</p>
-
<p>This already exists. If you want to meet someone... message them via the site. That said, I think if anyone wanted to meet me (and I have met and spoken to SOME members) they would have to prove they were real. Having your own picture somewhere on the site would help! A believable name would be good too.</p>

<p>Using the Facebook App would be a good way of letting my friends (I do have more than 1) see my work on photo.net. As far as I am aware, posting nude photos on Facebook is a good way of getting you removed from Facebook. I just wonder what their policy is on posting photo.net links that include nudity. Does anyone know? </p>
-
<p>I have said it before and I will say it again. In order to rate something, you should be forced to comment. It won't happen but I have never rated a picture without commenting first.</p>
-
<p>I am experiencing the same time outs. They were always there but as Fred points out, getting the page is a painful process.</p>
-
<p>haven't you answered your own question?</p>
-
<p>So you only rate 6 or 7 because you don't want low ratings on your own photos. Fantastic!</p>

<p>The talking ads are 'permanent' on my computer now. I am using a Mac book browsing with Google Chrome. The latest talking ad was for 'Gaviscon.'</p>

<p>I do also appreciate that the ad may have been trying to look familiar so that people might click on it.... but toilet cleaner on a photo site?</p>
