PPG Brain Damaged Voting System

[Mark Erickson]

My assessment of the Pentax Photo Gallery is that it encourages
brain-damaged "snap judgements".  It provides 5 thumbnails at a time, and
viewers must vote on all images before getting to the next set.  There's no
way to skip voting on any images, and there's no "neutral" vote.  Viewers
don't have to even look at full sized images before voting on them.  It's
just too easy to vote "thumbs down" on everything, particularly images that
don't represent well in tiny thumbnails but may be breathtaking when viewed
"full size".

My recommendation would be to show voters more thumbnails, and require
images to be viewed full size for, say, 15 seconds before allowing a vote to
be recorded.

Just thoughts....
