EDIT: click here to see the results!


The 1st place winners from every round of DSS to date, including the Mega Challenge winners have been compiled into a giant poll.

Each photo can be clicked on to see it larger. Make sure you come back and make your choices after viewing.

This is purely an experiment to test several things :
1. The ability for people to vote for multiple photos. (Vote for all of your favorites!)
2. If a poll larger than 50 entries is manageable or even practical
3. How smoothly a poll like this runs.
4. To see how the community at large responds.

The Top 5 Photos will be announced after the poll results have been compiled. You have 7 days to vote. Vote for as many images as you want but remember if you vote for all of them thats pretty much like not voting at all.

There are no prizes involved other than you get to be proud of your images and awesome accomplishments all over again.

Thanks Everyone.

Vote away!

    I'm glad you let us pick more than one! I do like being able to choose multiple photos, but (swat me now....) it would be nicer if we could rank them somehow. I think I chose 5 or 6 (could easily have chosen more).

    If all these things go well, I hope it encourages you to change the DSS format to something like this...

    and also I just wanted to use another cliche.... so hopefully there was no offence in my last post.

    Tried to keep it to 5 but ended up with 13. I have to say that I left some really awesome images unchecked. This was a challenge. Hope your experiment works out for you.

    Thanks Sean for the interesting challenge.

    Now to pick - as many as I want!!

    (But not just yet - gonna enjoy and cogitate first!)

    ok... :smack

    :D - Unfortunately ranking is not a feature that we have as part of the polls. I had to request the number of slots allowed in the poll be upgraded especially for this experiment, that I think is about all we have up our sleeve from what I can see.

    So far things seem to be going pretty smooth. At this point there does not seem to be any clear winner but of course it is much to early to tell.

    It's so nice to see these beauties here again iloveyou.gif

    I'll try to vote for only some now, hmm... difficult :)

    BTW: don't you think it would be a good idea to attach the name of the themes to them,
    since they were chosen as the best for a particular subject? headscratch.gif

    If you want to know more information about any of the images all you have to do is click on it and it opens a new window with a larger view in the winners gallery. Plus my thought is that these images won usually because they are good images with or without the theme that sparked their creation.

    I remember many of these from my lurking days (which I finally ended a few months ago!) I would see some of these images in the scroll across the top of the page. I remember thinking about how daunting it would be to actually enter the challenges.

    Thanks to all who have helped me take a few strides.

    It's awesome to see this collection in one place!

    Been wondering where you've been. You've certainly been missed around here. Good luck with the move and congrats on the new house.

    Thanks, Allen & Tatiana. My life has been more than crazy. Oy! rolleyes1.gif

    But I am looking forward to covering some new territory. :D And I'm also looking forward to meeting Winston (VisualExpressions) since he's in the same area. There's even an active photography club nearby, which looks interesting.

    7 days too long? I must say I was expecting many more participants in the vote here. Too many decisions? ear.gif

    Holiday week?

    Maybe try again at the close of this challenge, when people will be expecting to come and vote? ne_nau.gif

    It seems like this came out of the blue. It's out of the routine for this forum. Some may have overlooked it.

    I wondered why you were doing this now when it seems like an "end of year" kind of thing. I understand that you were testing an idea, but it still seemed like funny timing.

    So, personally, I loved looking at these images and trying to decide why I liked each one and whether it made my top 5 list. Excellent challenge!

    also, it's the week of the 4th...lots of vacationers, I imagine.

    I hope you continue to throw these curves at us. You are doing a splendid job as moderator.

    Yes it probably is the holiday timing. Funny I felt that might have the opposite effect. Either way so far we have a reasonable amount of voters to make is a decent test.

    Does anyone think I should extend it for another week? or leave it as 7 days?

    Is there a easy way to know how many members voted??? or does it just give the total votes...?

    At the bottom of the poll just below the last picture it tells you how many voters have voted this is not the total votes because multiple choice is allowing for many more total votes.
