Thanks Lex. All I'm suggesting is that people be given the choice. I can see from the string, and other debates, that there

isn't an ideal solution and that probably the best approach is to develop a think skin and not to worry too much about it.

But if some people would rather not have the pics rated anonymously, then that should be their prerogative. If others prefer

to have the anon votes, and the greater visibility, then they have the choice too.

I don't accept that there isn't an answer to this problem, and lets face it, it's a problem. Why not simply allow those wishing

not to receive anon ratings to disallow them? Give us a choice. If someone has the right to rate a picture anonymously,

then surely photographers should have the to disallow them?

Tim, Josh

Read through the comments on this as you suggested and there certainly seems to

be a problem. From what Josh has said, there's no way to win other than to opt out

of the points, but then some people like to have their pictures rated

Perhaps I'll just rely on the analysis evenings at my local photographic society for

fair, impartial, and consistent assessments of my pictures.

Hi Guys,

Surely the answer is to allow photographers to bar anonymous ratings?

Mike

How can I stop anonymous voters from scoring my pictures? I don't quite understand why anyone

would want to withhold their name in scoring a picture, but if they have a right to, then surely I have

the right to bar them.
