Ranking Section

[yy10]

I'm jsut thinking maybe we should have some like a rank/classing section where people get to get classed from Novice > Moderate > Intermediate > Semi-pro > Pro, lol. Since there's not really any place to have your paint.net works classed, I thought this would be a good idea.

Wouldn't this encourage the lowering of self esteem and confidence of users?

But it wuold also encourage people to get a higher rank.

All the pro's like (if they are willing, of coruse) oma, welsh... could rank...i dunno something like that

I prefer a more pure marketplace of ideas. If your stuff is good, you get lots of views. No rankings to muddle the waters and make it hard for a brilliant newcomer to get noticed.

...and no one is required to track the changing abilities of the users. Cool

Plus, the term "good" is relative. I would like a rating system for galleries and pieces, though.

Individual artists/pieces: if it's in here, http://forums.getpaint.net/index.php?/topic/8665-galleria-the-paintnet-art-gallery/ it's excellent. How's that for a rating?

[csm725]

Yeah, but pyro only does his rounds every 5 months. Is there a Galleria suggestion thread or something of the sorts? If not, could me or a mod start one?

Use the report button. In the body of the "report", make your case for inclusion of the reported image in the Pictorium Galleria.

Yes the wheel turns slowly at times. A reported post does not go away until dealt with, so eventually someone will action the request. Be patient 'Grasshopper'.....,

Okay. Let's not veer this topic too much off-topic . I'll start a new topic with some forum requests.

in general it is a bad idea. As others have stated if it isn't broke don't fix it.
