temedoro15 Chronal Wormhole Raider Offline --> Posts: 719 --> Join Date: Feb 2010	I'm ok with the 3-pic cap, but thats 'cause I'm not very productive (seriously, just 4 pics in 3 months!), and I think for many ppl here, 3 per day is enough, because not every day is a photo-taking day, and even if you took a lot of pics (I mean the posting-worthy ones), you could space them or plan a schedule, hehe... BUT there are some that are very productive and will eventually get overwhelmed with unposted pics because the 3-pic cap isn't enough, or some that are not THAT productive, but the only chance they got to post (due to work, life, etc.) they have more than 3 pics. In both cases they'll have contant acumulation. So, maybe a 4/5-pic cap with the criteria already in use (and the ones mentioned above). In the case of photos telling a story, you could opt for a daily/every 2 days episode, or post the first episode (photo) and post the link to a imagehost site, like the "Adventures From the Roll Top" dios... (and lastly, I tried the "delete" tip on one of my photos, but it said "you don't have the privileges")

cyko Plastic Sciences, Ph.D Offline --> Posts: 2,002 --> Join Date: Sep 2008	I voted for the 3 cap. I don't consider JoeDios a library so much as an exhibition. I can shoot 20-30 photos of a scene trying to get the right shot, but I'm not going to upload them all to JD. Instead, pick the best and share those. And if there are more than 3 unbelievably awesome shots, we'll catch 'em on Flickr.

Sonneilon aka 'Paul WS Anderson' ;) Offline --> Posts: 7,751 --> Join Date: Jul 2005	Actually, just for clarity, one does NOT need to wait 24 hrs before posting again. It's more accurate to post your 3, wait till someone else posts, THEN post your next 3 or whatever. Thanks for all the input. I ask for the sake of the amount of deleting I've had to do over the last few months. Anyway...

ender098 Veteran Offline --> Posts: 3,665 --> Join Date: Dec 2005	I say we stick with 3. I mean if you have 4 or 5 that are GOOD, and show different aspects worthy of a pic, then post 'em up, but I, Like most of you don't wanna see "Yeah, and picture #47....same subject but 2" left of Picture 46....ain't that cool! I AM SOOO RAD". I think we're all on the same sheet of music! I haven't posted in a while. Is there a mechanism keeping you from posting more than? If there is, I say you keep the cap at 3 but increase it so you can actually post 5 and go on the Honor system! 5 will give you the chance when you have something worthy of 5 pics, and a "gentlemens agreement" on 3 will keep us balanced...
