| i feel that this is a great site for amateur as well as professionals. however the number of prizes given out to the winners should be increased. this will help generate more traffic to the site and make it even more interactive as there are going to be more winners. the number of prizes should increase in numbers. the value of the prize could be very small. there should be daily awards in all categories.

I'm confused...
There are daily awards for winners in every categories every day. In both category awards and signature awards.
Now if there was some money involved I am sure traffic would greatly increase!!! ha ha ha !!!!!

When on the home page you can click "signature" or "category" and it will take you to the pages to show you who won. The Daily awards, monthly and annual awards are on the homepage where you sign in!

I'm new here so hopefully opinions can be freely shared here.
Having prizes is a double edge sword. The images I see here, for the most part, are of a higher caliber than those of other sites that I frequent. The quality of the feedback appears to also be of a higher caliber. Were money to come into the picture then you would see a dramatic decrease in the quality of both, a dramatic increase in gamesmanship, in fighting (not that there isn't some of that already), and a general decline in the community that surrounds this site. It's not to say that this site is perfect but to me it comes close.
To quote a movie I saw with some changes, "The prize here is learning, and feedback arms you for what's out there. Each new techinque you learn makes you that much harder to knock down. If in the end you are not stronger and tougher then you have lost nothing, but if you are... That is your prize."

User1055 (10/30/2006) i feel that this is a great site for amateur as well as professionals. however the number of prizes given out to the winners should be increased. this will help generate more traffic to the site and make it even more interactive as there are going to be more winners. the number of prizes should increase in numbers. the value of the prize could be very small. there should be daily awards in all categories.The site issues about 1375 awards each month. Daily Category Award = 21 per day x 31 = 651 Daily Signature Category Award = 21 per day x 31 = 651 Daily Award = 1 per day x 31 = 31 Daily Signature Award = 1 per day x 31 = 31 Weekly Award = 1 per week x 4 = 4 Weekly Signature Award = 1 per week x 4 = 4 Monthly Award = 1 Monthly Signature Award = 1 TOTAL ~ 1374
