All these low votes (sandbaggings?) are appalling! Now that DPR is putting multiple accounts " out-of-law", it would be a good thing to change the voting system!

I asked for a "close-up or cropped detail". Some of these entries meet that requirement better than others, I ask the voters to consider this while voting.

Should you not DQ those entries which clearly do not meet YOUR rules?

The problem is there is no defining criteria to establish what is considered a "close-up". Some are closer than others, some are cropped tighter than others. I DQ blatant ones but there are many borderline (no pun intended) that if I DQ one, then I set myself up for unfairly leaving the next one that is slightly more cropped, etc.
