Rating Images in the Gallery

Has anyone else noticed alot of images in the gallery are being rated, but no comments are being left. I was under the impression that the purpose of the gallery was to get feedback and advice from other members about your painting/conversion work.

Wouldn't it be so much nicer if we could all just say, "Lovely miniature you have there, but I've only rated it as average cause <Insert reason here>" or, conversely, "Terrible Miniature. You have to work on your <Insert reason here>"
At least then we'll know where we are going wrong.

I think everyone will agree, when you work on a model long enough, and look at it long enough, you start to forget about where you can improve and concentrate on what's done right. Well, I do anyway.

Just a thought for you all to ponder over your next can of nutritious beer/pineapple chunks/Heinz spagetti...

I m not sure, if there are already a lot of comments, and you agree with those, you cant post any usefull stuff anymore.
Then we will end up with those:
yeah definetely
uhuh, i agree
totally, dude!
yeah he s right
....
kind of threads.
If everything is said already, but you think the rating doesnt fit the model, you should be able just to vote without the nonsense post.

I personally like to see comments, unless it's something like "that really sucks d00d3", which doesn't really stimulate my creative centers much at all.

I prefer comments such as, you could work a little more on the shading on the armor or something to that effect.

Anything helpful, even if it's to say that you like something they did and they should keep doing it that way.

I'm not sure I'm making too much sense with this post, so I'm going to stop here and have another gin and tonic... :D

You have a very good point there.
I was talking more of images where there are no comments, just a rating. I suppose I should have stated that, though.

Yeah thatstrue (oh man im doing it myself now)
but restrictions on ratings dont work i think.
People should be able to use their own common sense.

I agree but I still think comments should be left.

Something I am missing in the gallery is a 'Hot or not' function like they have on some other sites where random pics from all galleries appear and you can rate them from say 1-10... This would be much batter as I have noticed that it is mostly newer images that are in the toplists (and some of them don't belong in the toplists compared to so many other pics hiding in the gallery IMO..).

What do people think of this idea? I'm thinking something along the lines of what they have on the CoolMiniOrNot website...

That would be quite a good idea :)

Definitely a good idea, Bobahat

There are a lot of pretty Awful miniatures in the top slots. We need to get a Random Viewer on the go.
