    Hi! I like the site and the nice pictures.
    However, I have a suggestion: it would be great if when opening the site it would display the last visited category. This way I can come back directly to my favorite category.
    Best wishes!

    Hello.
    Good work!
    I have a question: how are the rank and the percentage of persons that agree with the current choice calculated? Maybe it would be good to show the calculation rule somewhere….And also I would like to see the number of combats that the current pictures were in.
    Regards,
    Vas

    Thank you all for your good thoughts :) !

    Muffin, thanks for the suggestion. We’ve implemented it, and now it’s working (ver. 0.3.2).

    Vic, we’re working on a faq page right now where you will find all the information on the things you ask. I think it will also be a blog post on the rank formula. I agree that the number of combats should be available for a picture. We’ll add this info in the next few days.

    All the best,
    Viorel

    Hi,

    Very nice site :)

    Can I add some pictures I’ve took? I can see myself in a “photographer of the month” award on your site ;)

    Thanks,
    Anne

    Thanks for your suggestion, Anne. It’s indeed a good thing people to be able to suggest their own pics. We will provide a way in the next version for the users to do that. However, the pics should be hosted on flickr.com.

    All the best,
    Viorel

    Good ideea, after u’re site becomes more popular you could start making money by comparing products and making statistics. Try finding out more about IPSOS Romania, becouse i think you will attack their target sector if i’m not wrong.

    Hi there,

    I’m really impressed of what I see in this website a lot! =)
    I’ve got a small suggestion for you. I don’t know if you’ll like it!
    Wouldn’t be great if flickr members can nominate some of their pictures under the categories you set & see what people think of them in the same way that this website works? ;)

    Thanks,
    Ali

    More categories! There’s always the cute option with babies or the my-city-is-better-than-yours with “city fight” pictures.
