Thanks for that, Jack. I assumed that there must be some formula used but I must have missed your earlier post on the subject. I don't know if that is still the method used but it sounds reasonable.
One thing I'm unsure of when voting is how to deal with images where the submitter has obviously not read the submission criteria. For example, the rules clearly state that "The PENTAX Photo Gallery does not currently support photos with non-standard aspect ratios (eg. panoramic photos)" but I still come across plenty of panoramic submissions. I usually just give these a thumbs down on the basis that the submitter(s) should at least have read the rules, but some of the images are quite good. What do others do with these?
