# My comment above wasn't part of it
I was just being sarcastic.
In the recent past there was some bitching about how it isn't fair that Happy Toast gets a lot of FPs, because he has 'fancy 3d software'.
In fact I remember seeing one comment to the effect "how are we supposed to compete?" or something along those lines.

In fairness I think the person I'm (mis?)quoting here was actually complaining more about the nature of images on the FP, which I think they were basically saying had changed.

# people really care about fps?
i know it's nice to be appreciated and all, but it's just a popularity contest.

yes, i know i made that silly pic about fp-ing the nightshift folk, but that was tongue (or keyboard, if you prefer)-in-cheek.

and, saying "it isn't fair" because he uses zara implies that we need a handicapping system here:

+/- 0 for paint
- 1 for photoshop/imageready
- 2 for flash
- 5 for having a sense of humour.

# how long do you sit on ideas?
i was rummaging around some old folders the other day and found pics from 2 years ago that are only partly done or are still just ideas.
(, Sat 26 Apr 2008, 6:56, archived)
# Depends on the subject, I guess.
I have stock folders with pics gathered that
span several years too. Some get done, others
can/are used for something totally different
from what I had saved it for in the first place.

Tough question actually.

# I'm not even sure it's a popularity contest.
Perhaps I'm naive, but I still think the vast majority of fps are there simply because a mod sees a pic and likes it.
(, Sat 26 Apr 2008, 6:30, archived)
# i somewhat regretted that phrasing.
but, i have seen a good number of pics on the front page that really are there more because the person posting them on board is consistently good. so, popularity does enter into it a tad - though that in no way diminishes the quality of the pics, in my opinion.

# quoting the faq:
How do I get my images on the front page?

The board moderators have the power to approve the best pics they see on the board. Make us laugh or make us say, "Wow!" and your picture stands a good chance of being approved.

# This sounds like a bit of sour grapes.
If Mr Toast has 'fancy 3d software', then anyone can go and download or buy said software. An image doesn't get on the front page if it doesn't get clicked. It doesn't get clicked if it isn't funny or good, 3d software or not. Just look at the first two images on the FP at the moment.

# I agree that it's sour grapes.
What I find particularly perplexing is when people get angry with the person who made the pic, given that they're not the ones who FPd it.
