I am new to Smugmug and have been unable to find an answer to this question. Thanks in advance for any advice.

I've selected about 80-90 images and I want my friends and family to provide their input on which 20-30 images I should put in my wedding portfolio. I'd like for users to be able to quickly scan and rank photos in a gallery. Then, I'd like to easily see the results. How would you do this?:scratch

I was thinking of asking people to "comment" on the photos (so i could see their name), leave the comment field blank, and then rank the photo using the Smugmug 1-5 star system. Then, I could review the comments and tabulate them to get an average score for each photo. The downside is this is labor intensive. I would prefer it be an easier process, but I am not sure what that would be. I thought of using the "thumbs up" icon but it appears I cannot review which photos get a thumbs up.

(FYI: Yes, I have a group of women who are in the target demographic and are willing to help me for free--for which I am so grateful. I'm doing this mainly b/c I find that the images I select [FONT=Verdana, sans-serif]as my "best photos" are often different from the images my friends and family would choose. It may seem odd, but sometimes I find photographers need outside help to recognize our best images.)
