and I don't see how vote gathering has anything to do with PS Vote gathering is how you win, PS is a short cut. Some might call it enhancement but all I see is a way that no one else can do something. I've tried PS on some of my photos and I think in most cases it makes the photo look worse.
ONE black and white photo I did is about the only acception simply because it getting more views fastere than any other of the photos I PS.

To me its nothing but cheating but it seems to be the only way to win anything on this site. I just had a great photo take off like a rocket after I posted it and not I'm wondering what if I destroyed it with P.S. ??

I've considered deleting the whole post and just for getting I ever brought it up. I never thought there'd be this much response to the subject.

Well, perhaps we can call it a baptism by fire. You just happened to land on a polarizing subject.
And it turns out you can't delete a thread here. Ever. It is now here for posterity.
So PT is where the forum for VB resides. If you want to discuss the merits of PS, or an image, you come here. If you want accolades and "likes" and what-not, you go there. It's 2 separate sites with an agreement between them.
If you want to discuss a particular image, either add it to the forum, here, or provide a link to it. Best to upload it here. There's a post above that discusses which of those little widgets (in the editor) will help you. Unless your browser is being a pain. Also, you would want to go to the proper subject area in the photo galleries section.
