Yes, I understand that you are not talking about me, specifically, but I am part of that group, and I don't care for the implication that site suscribers are buying their way in to vote.
The rating system can easily be abused by one person who goes around and (Like Koasati said) gives high ratings to his/her 'heroes' and low ratings to the people who he/she just doesnt like for some reason. Or, rating by ScreenShot alone.

Understood, and I see your point. But on that note, couldn't a skinner/artist just as easily abuse the rating system by say, giving poor ratings to their competition? There was a thread on here a short while ago where this very thing happened. this.
You can be a better judge of the quality of something if you have made one yourself. |
Again, understand, but are the skins supposed to be admired and judged by others who make them, or also admired and judged by those who are heavy users of them? It could have been a huge project to make, but if it's not useable, that work doesn't make it a 10.
I think I know what you mean though...I see some great skins that really aren't my style or colors or whatever, I'll still give them kudos for the nice work.
I wish I'd never heard of ratings now.

Sorry, no hard feelings I hope.
