I agree. But there could be a voting without consequences, like at mocpages. One
category could be "artwork and presentation". So blurry pics could cause a
"negative" vote.


On the subject of overly large pictures - I would love to see pictures over
some size re-sampled to say 800x600, though the original should also be
available (sometimes it's nice to be able to zoom in). But if the default
was to display maximum 1024x768 or some such, with larger pictures
re-sampled down, that would be way cool...

If the photographer takes both overview and detailed pics there is no need to
zoom in. A automatic resize functionality down to 800x600 would be perfect.

... These days, I just don't
have the time, so they get uploaded as is ...

I do not understand this way of thinking. If you do not have the time to sort
out your pics or run them through a resize-batch process before uploading, I
will not have time to surf and enjoy such a gallery. If the creator spends so
little interest in presenting his/her stuff, why should the spectator spend even
more time looking at the pics?
