Thanks for being a part of DA. Recently, a technical site change was made to alleviate a bottleneck within the voting system that was created as a result of the numerous site changes when we moved to DAv3. As a result of this, many users were able to vote where they had previously been constrained. As a result of that, the vote ratio went from approximately 2:1 to over 5:1! That means any image in the system is, as of this writing, getting over 5 votes per day! This is why your images are needed!

It seems clear to me that the changes to improve the voting ratio have been even more successful than what was imagined and it indicates there is an abundance of voters and a lack of images. At present, there are only about 1,400 active images in the system whereas there were over 10,000 before the move to v3.

So, if you have images that you'd like to submit for feedback, now is a perfect time. I believe you will be happy with how many votes your images will rake in.

I'm trying to put mine on but it won't go. What's the deal? Why don't more people vote?

Whenever the overall site voting ratio falls below 1.5 votes per day per image (4000 images need 6000 votes per day) uploads are restricted for members who have voted less than 1.5 times the number of votes they have received.  This is in an effort to control the images in the voting and maintain a stronger vote ratio.

.

You have received 32,258 votes and cast 28,263 votes. That is a vote ratio of  0.876 : 1.  You (and all other members with less than a 1.5:1 ratio) are blocked from uploading new images until the overall site ratio exceeds 1.5 to 1 (right now it is 1.4661:1).

.

Casting additional votes will help to raise the site vote ratio and reopen the contest pool for new entries.  WE

1.5:1 voting ration is killing me. Before this rule I used to keep 100 active photos ( as part of the deal for subscribing ) and some day I received more then hundred new votes. When I went to a vacation for a month my voting deficit ratio went to 0.3:1 . When the new ratio rules started I deleted all of my images - but my voting ratio didn't changed. since then I have only 1 or 2 active images to receive less vote - vote m
