Gallery Rating

Gallery Ratings are a scoring system based on user input that value a gallery's worth on a scale 1 to 5 stars.

How To

Rating a gallery is done by opening a gallery and using the 5 stars on the left side below its data and above the Favorites link. Simply click on the desired rating of 1 through 5 (from left to right). The number next to the rating indicates the number of users who have voted on that gallery. Users may not rate their own galleries.

A gallery's rating is displayed both on the gallery's page and on the galleries front page. The rating shown is based on the total number of votes it receives, weighed by each user's mod power at the time they voted. Users may change their vote at any time (this may require a page refresh of the gallery's page if they have just voted for it), but they may not remove their vote.

Effects

A gallery's rating does not directly affect it in any way. Users may choose to avoid galleries with low ratings but it is entirely at their discretion. Gallery Searches may be done using a minimum rating as a search requirement.
