Funny, I entered a shot as a "placeholder" for something better. Wasn't able to shoot for something better, and my image is doing way better than expected.

I'm sure since I posted this, it'll plummet now. Lol

So true.

Yep. The profile page won't update until the voting is over for each challenge. Keeps the scoundrels from trolling profile pages and changing votes and/or comments made, to guess whose photo is in a challenge.

ETA - Nice camera you're carrying BTW. :-)

Thanks for the "My Home" page suggestion. My Home page does displays some results, while My Profile page shows none - 0 statistics. I was checking for results on the My Profile page. Apparently, the two pages do not match.

My Home shows:

Thanks for the help. Now, it's time to just let it roll.

I'm a Newbie, so please bear with me. Grain VI is my first submission. Is it possible to have over 40 views with 0 votes and 0 comments? Or... do I not have "My Preferences" set up properly? Maybe the image is just that "bad"... but not 1 vote... not even a low vote after 42 views? What am I missing?

Thanks and best regards.


You should definitely have votes by now. Have you clicked on "My Home" up in the upper right hand area of the screen? And have you clicked the "update" button, on the left hand side of the screen once you're on your home page?

Totally not normal. To the point that it's not even possible. Wait a day or so, and if this hasn't resolved itself, send in an administrative ticket.

DPC isn't normally this strange, but it's been a bit of a month.

(by the way, 0 comments is pretty usual. Comments are kind of few and far between sometimes. But you should have votes by now)

Yep, that is exactly why this place works for me. I might well plan to get out and create images, but without the prompt and the deadline much, much less would get done. The challenges get me shooting. The feedback in terms of scores and comments help me to learn. The score watching roller coaster ride is just a bonus.
