Exclamation CHANGE the 3-pic cap?

Alright party people, the photo-cap limits have ALWAYS been decided by the community here. Due to the amount of newcomers and the fact that I've been erasing quite a few photos lately, I'm gonna put this up as a poll. I will give 3 options and you all just choose. If you feel like it, you can always reply with your suggestions, thoughts, annoyances, etc.

Keep in mind, we have had people who'll post 50-some pics of the same thing, different angles when there is NO cap in effect. So it's up to you all on how many pics from the same person you'd like to see in a row.

I figure I'll close this in a week or so.

Thanks
G

Thumbs up

3 is fine.I usually have the 90 pic/page so I see all the new photos anyway.But seeing 6 piucs of the same thing from different angle in a row bothers me. If you want to do different angles then, have 1 Post and put the different angle in the comment boxes below.Just upload them to a photosharing site like flickr,photobucket and link them to here.

BTW G, is there anyway to have some way to delete our own pics we put up by mistake.I've done that a few times.Uploaded the wrong pic I wanted t use.

In the "Image Tools" (upper right corner of pic) menu there is the option to edit the image, one of the first options that you can do is to delete your own pics. I've done it several times.

I'm fine with the 3. It keeps from being overwhelmed, and since I can't rank pics yet, 3 it is.

I could see going up to 4 or 5 on something like the ToC or other "themed" posting even.

Anything over 5 is just overwhelming. If you're that productive, you can post all week at current limits and be a star.

Is for constructive criticism (will even settle for destructive) just anything but "Nice shot" or "Awesome".

Cool 3!

The limit of 3 pictures is fine for me too.

I looked there and seen the edit photo and figured it was to crop it or resize it.This was the first time I clicked it to see what you could do.

thanks

Three is perfect. It helps with self editing. Thanks for the deleting tip! I never used that tool box either.

The 3, 4 or 5 option is fine.....3 is good if your doing some quick 'n simple thing....4 if it really needs that 'extra shot'.....5 if you've taken enough different pictures to tell a cohesive story within that cap.

The 24 hr thing is more of the bitch IMO......I'm not advocating 3 every hour on the hour, but sometimes you snap something the night before, post it up in the morning and then go snap some more during the day but can't post them up again for another 16+ hours.......that gets to be a cramp.


The thing is, post with common sense........and honestly, I don't see any problem with *gently* informing the 'n00b's about picture etiquette.......hey, everybody's got to be able to take some constructive critiquing-otherwise, why in the hell would you pose and post pictures of little plastic army men (and women)?!?!

I think three is the max it should ever be! Imagine if you could only post one shot a day! I would try my hardest to make it the most absolute best I could! I know im a jerk! lol!

The 3 pictures is fine with me. You can always post 3 more tomorrow and so one, that's not the big deal here.
