I thought I should get the award for getting totally trashed in the form
of a rather LONG paragraph. The most comprehensive review I've ever
gotten for a picture.

Needless to say, I won't be posting anything with or without votes. ;-)

I would turn the ratings off.  Those of us that have been posting PAW's
have pretty thick skin but for many photographers there is a large fear
factor in putting up their images.  Remember when Eric was getting grief
for posting baby pictures?  Or how about when Graham was real hesitant
to post his images; now we depend on our frequent dose of the English
country side.

The trick is for the family to be encouraging enough for people to post
their images, but to be honest enough that all our work improves.

Comments yes, grading not really a good idea.
