About Rate Me!

This group is considered to be the unwanted stepchild of Delete Me!. Rate Me! is not intended to replace or compete with Delete Me! and does not even have officially sanctioned support of said group (as of yet).

The intention of this group is to provide an alternate format for rating photos that will continue the spirit of honest critiques, but allows for more constructive criticism.

We're not here to be nice, we're not here to be mean, we're just here to rate!

And now, THE RULES:

-----
1)
Do not Rate Me! outside of Rate Me!
Only 1 photo submission/person! Once removed, a new photo can be posted.
If you post a photo, you MUST rate 10 others!
Posters of new pictures are required to vote on the five earliest entries of the pool (i.e. the five at the bottom of the last page), and the remaining five votes can be given to five other pictures in the pool.

this will be checked regularly and any picture whose poster didn't adhere to the new rule will be removed.


This group is created through INVITE only.

-----
2) Each posted photo will be rated by members on a scale from 0-5 for both technique and zing.

technique: Things that can be applied to every picture. How it is framed, exposure, DOF, focus, foreground, Post-processing...

zing: Zing is the opposite. The intangibles about a photo that make you gauze at it. It could be the particular texture of the slab of granite, the expression on someone's face that tells a unique story, or a sky that exudes pure joy.

Do not rate too lightly. We\'re aiming at quality, people.

-----
3) Rating example:

T4 + Z2 = 6 (tag rateme1_6)
T4 + Z1 = 5 (tag rateme2_5)
T3 + Z3 = 6 (tag rateme3_6)
....
T5 + Z3 = 8 (tag rateme10_8)

Now add them all up! (rateme_65)

-----
4) If after 10 votes, the total score is equal or greater to 75 points, it will be tagged by an admin with "overrated". After receiving an invitation it can be send to Rate Me! Overrated
If the total rating is below 75, the photo must be removed and can be placed in the Rate Me! Underrated pool.

-----
5) Ratings should include:
