One of my images had signature rating of 7.0 and standard rating of 7.3 and round about yesterday night after receiving 3 and 1 votes respectively. Now after few minutes member weighted in his/her 300s rated it a 7, so the signature rating remained the same but the standard rating went down to 7.2 and round about, after a few minutes another member in his/her 300s voted 7 and again the standart rating went down to 7.17 while the signature rating remained unchanged. Is this normal? I mean I was under the impression that when a signature member votes on your image signature rating of that image changes. Isn't that so?

Bhas if your signature rating is 7.0000 and you get a 7 from any weighted signature voter, your average will remain 7.0000. THere's no place else for it to go.

Ya thats alright but will that reduce the standard rating also? I mean the signature rating remains unchanged alright but does that reduce the standard rating?

If your standard rating is 7.3 and you get a 7.0, the standard rating will be pulled down closer to a 7.0.

Wright, I didn't knew that a signature member's vote is counted in both the categories. And can you please explain to me this capped weight which currently is at 4?

And robert thanks to you as well.
