I really dislike HDR images. They're supposed to capture more of the natural properties if light but they look disturbingly un-natural.

I agree with you. They don't look right or natural to me either. I think HDR photography probably has scientific uses but not for this stuff.

I think it verges on making everything cartoony.

When we were looking to buy a house a year or two back all of a sudden the real estate agencies around here discovered HDR photography. Yes, with a hint of it it can really highlight the colours etc of a place, but they were slapping it on and it made everything look like shit

It's stopped happening as much now, I think people started to question why the places looked nothing like the pictures, and why they needed trick photography to make them look good in the first place....

If you slack asses pretending to be webmasters/programmers put the beers and the bongs down for long enough you might be able to come up with a voting system that means something. I know, that just means more work. Then the complaints come and then more work (that is, if you give a shit about it). So you just cut to beyond the chase and right to the crash and burn and say fuck it. Am I right?

The problem with a voting system that means something, is we'd need voters to pull their fingers out and vote for things

You guys are great and all, but there's like 6 of you that actually vote smiling

Looking at the 'top list' right now, the #1 picture has been voted on 11 times, and down to a massive 3 votes on the 20th image.

That's in the past week if I recall. Makes it hard to do anything automatic, and we did always want quality on the front page of the site, as that is still what 50% of people land on. The other 50% come in via an image directly.

If we allow all you hoodlums to choose what's on the front page, there goes the other 50% of the traffic winking
