Re: Here's two that did not make into Pentax Gallery
I agree. I found them interesting as well. But if you study the gallery, you'll find very few pics of a newsworthy nature.

That doesn't surprise me. I never study the gallery though - I don't like the user interface at all, and most of the pictures are rather predictable. The exceptions tend to be by PDMLers.

Re: Here's two that did not make into Pentax Gallery
Two very compelling photos, Joe. The train photo has some very interesting elements in it--that sign on the right hand side: Safety Service makes for some tragic irony to be sure. Composition of all the elements is excellent as well. I have to ask: is the car driver?

Joe, The 2nd photo is pretty dramatic, well caught with fire and all. The fireman and 'safety service' on the sign are good adds. Regards, Bob S.

Re: Here's two that did not make into Pentax Gallery
Hm. Those two photos are good photos Joe. So why did you submit them? :-) Kind of serious. I have found one single photograph of disturbing nature at PPG. I'm not saying that the typical PPG photos are bad photos, not at all. But they are IKEA poster pictures. -- MaritimTim 2009/5/23 Bob W p...@web-options.com: That doesn't surprise me.

Re: pentax gallery
My thought is that the gallery has enough in it now to allow the judges to be pickier. By that I mean, if they feel a particular photo has others in the gallery already then it might get rejected. If it is something totally different of new, then it might get accepted. As an example: There are some great dragonfly shots in the gallery now and I continue to see many more great dragonfly shots submitted. I could envision the judges to be more picky about that kind of shot than some other types that are not well represented. -- Best regards, Bruce Saturday, June 7, 2008, 4:54:06 PM, you wrote: Maybe the bar isn't raised that high as before (I stopped trying for a long time).

Re: pentax gallery
Tough call on that. I had 15 in that status for about a month. All were rejected the other day by the judges and most of them used to be in the gallery before I pulled them all out. So I'm thinking that the peers accepted them and the judges didn't. -- Best regards, Bruce Sunday, June 8, 2008, 7:52:26 AM, you wrote: BM That makes me curious as well.

Re: pentax gallery
I think it's true that certain themes lose their uniqueness and, due to the number of offerings, must then compete against a stronger field. Do you still have a number of re-submissions, Bruce?

Re: pentax gallery
I had 3 approved in the last weeks. I tracked my photos in the recent addition category and lots of other new photos appeared (maybe 10 each week). The number/counter of new additions also varied. Didn't make notes, looks like older photos drop from that list. Anyway my observation is they are accepting many new photos and many new photos are in the same genre, sunsets, lighthouses, bugs, flowers etc. My advise keep posting they didn't raise the bar, only the input volume has exploded. It wouldn't surprise me if the judges pick one or two every day from the voting queue and if that's true luck is also important. My approvals are a little surprise to me, 2 of them are quick tests of a new lens. Others which I gave much more thought and time didn't make it.

Pentax Gallery Voting
Has anyone noticed the big change in the voting mechanism. It seems that the pictures are being shrunk down below the 600 pixel size that is set for the gallery. Two issues for me: 1) picture is even smaller - makes it harder to evaluate 2) the sizing function can massacre the picture making it look much poorer than it really is. -- Best regards, Bruce -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List PDML@pdml.net http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.
Re: Pentax Gallery Voting
I'm totally with you, Bruce. I have posted here before on how the voting page is programmed, and this change seems to be addressing one of my main criticisms; the total size of the webpage. Because of the way it is programmed, the page has to pre-load all the full-gallery-size images at first call. With five full-gallery-size images in landscape orientation, the voting page easily amounts to 1.5 MB. By shrinking the large pics on the voting page, they reduce load time significantly. What would have been better was to increase thumbnail size, and drop the pre-loading for an on-demand loading of the full-size images. However, this would mean a total deviation from the page design. The whole voting registration would need reprogramming. It's not a small task. :-( Jostein 2008/3/9, Bruce Dayton [EMAIL PROTECTED]: Has anyone noticed the big change in the voting mechanism.

If image receives 30 - 100% positive votes out of 60 = Images is reviewed by Pentax team. IOW, 18 - 60 yes votes. The 60 vote criteria is the result of a recent raise fro 40.

There is one other thing about the standard fare shot that detracted, but probably only for me. That is excessive building clutter. Just too many structures.

Re: First Pentax Gallery accepted photo
I'm not surprised that it was accepted. It has intense colour and is an unusual subject. I like it and would have voted for it. You can link directly to the image - right click it and choose copy link location from the context menu. This only works when you are viewing your photos via your artists' log in, using your password. If you are just viewing the images via the normal Pentax gallery URL, right clicking brings up the Flash settings menu.

Re: Pentax Gallery

Re: Pentax Gallery
I'm surprised that Pigeon Point wasn't accepted. It's an exceptional shot. There have been pano shot on which I've voted no because that was identified in the beginning as reason for them to be declined. I took that as part of the voting instructions. There were some that were only slightly pano cropped that I didn't consider severe enough. I'm just offering this as a possible reason for the second shot being declined.

First Pentax Gallery accepted photo
http://www.pentaxphotogallery.com/johncelio I finally got around to submitting three photos yesterday, though I've been a member of the gallery since last summer. After hearing how sometimes the Gallery folks take a long time to approve or deny photos, I was suprised they got to me so quickly. I'm also a little surprised they picked the image they did.
