Try wrapping your minds around this. These are the facts. A year ago, in a discussion with similar theme to this one here, it's been said and repeated that the gfx artists initiative is "chasing people away". Me, "being on their side", got accused of the same. A year has passed. I see same people discussing. Peacemaker is here. Oswald is here. A whole bunch of other old coders (sorry for not giving each of you a shout out by name) are here. Just like last year. You know who is not here? The Sarge is not here. Electric is not here. Deev is not here. CreaMD is not here. Spider-j is not here. OK, Sander just got back thank god. So, yes, you guys are right that people "get chased away". But you're the ones doing the chasing. Newbies are not chased away, look how Critikill came fresh to make jolly good fun of us all. It seems that top gfx artists are in fact getting chased away, along with a bunch of others. Don't you wiseguy coders regret that? Making top gfx artists shut up about gfx? |

how I vote:
#1 composition: most important, if it's bad then the picture won't interest me. the essence of a good composition is to generate emotions.
if it's cliché then I won't interest.
I don't look at the implementation at this time.
#2 implementation: what gets to this point will definitely not be under 6 points.
here I look at the colors, the technique. |

This is how I vote:
I find Sanders' set of indicators quite useful to rate an image.
I must admit, however, that first impressions are already effective before I apply the parameters mentioned. This first impression determines whether I even take a closer look.
Direct conversions or AI receive a -10 penalty in my ratings (usually normalized to one point based on the scale provided), regardless of what other indicators would suggest at first glance.
BTW:
I must say, however, that this explanation of my voting behavior has significantly slowed down my creative flow. I believe that it is fundamentally unnecessary for me to explain my voting behavior here. After all, I am free and I fear that this explanation could reduce the magic of my votes. :-D |

Well,
i vote ONLY 9 or 10, if i like something and seldom a 8 when people are beginners (to motivate them).
SERIOUS VOTING SERIOUSLY? Well, ... .. .
To make a science about voting on CSDb is really weird! Sorry! |

Quoting ShineWell, i vote ONLY 9 or 10, if i like something and seldom a 8 when people are beginners (to motivate them).
If someone rightfully gets a lower score from me and if they can overcome the "hist", they will learn from it.
If I give them a higher score, I lie to them and they believe it's good.
By doing so, I only do them harm. |

@Shine:
It's less of a science but rather reflecting on what you think when you vote for something. At least that's how I would call it.
edit: I think Oswald is just thinking about what lame meme he might come up with next. ;) |

Quoting 4gentETry wrapping your minds around this. These are the facts....
As far as I can see, facts, recent gfx compos (Fjälldata, Zoo, Transmission, ...) are still listing the same old hardcore tops. Not sure who's been chasing who?
As for rating, never been that academic about it, and I don't vote, but the originality / theme / concept seems to be most important to me. The style, composition and technique are usually a matter of the artist's persistence, compulsive behaviour and stamina. Which I respect alot, great art never comes easy, but I don't think it's the most surprising factor for me.
AI doesn't do well on originality, mind, only when it's a funny generated meme that makes me laugh. But I guess that's also depending on the person who's typing in the fucked up prompt. :P |
