How do you rate pix?

Do you rate the girl? Or do you rate the picture as a whole? (pose, size, light, etc.) Seems a shame to give a sexy girl a poor rating because the photographer didn't know how to take a good picture, or because she didn't know how to strike a sexy pose.

I rate the pic as a whole. Sometimes a very nice girl doing a good pose on a good quality pic doesn't feel as attractive to me than some more common girl not posing. So there isn't a particular "rule" for me. Some stuff like cigarettes, implants, very bad quality/size get a -1 though.

I try to rate the girl, and overlook the quality of the picture. It seems to me, that some times the quality of the picture could effect the look of the girl, I do try to take that into consideration.

I tend to think the same way as Omuh on this. The vote is never for the babe ( despite the classification) it is for the picture
that is the most attractive. Number one feature there is the sexual attractiveness of the woman etc., but a shitty photographer has sunk more votes for a decent looking woman than anything other than, say a cigarette.

My default position is this: If she turns me on then she gets a 10. If she doesn't then I don't vote. But if she is has some quality that is truly fucked up like plastic boobies or thinks that overweight is cool, then she gets an equally big fat 0, er....1. ( There should be a catagory for repulsive, no ?)

I suppose I rate the picture as a whole. My rating is based on my reaction-attraction to the woman as presented. I can't pretend that I would always have the same reaction to a woman if the pic is a poor one. However, there are times when a woman's appeal transcends a bad shot. On the other hand, there are times when it's a great pic with an attractive woman, but for some reason it does nothing for me. I won't be an ass about it and give the pic a low score, but it won't get my highest score either.
Sometimes there is a woman who may not be as classically beautiful as some others, but something about her appearance or dress or pose or attitude or some je ne sais quois just excites me. Those get high marks from me.
It's very subjective, but then that is the nature of such votes.

if they are trying to hard no good
if it looks like they are pro's no good
fattys that appear to think they'er good look'in just because of big tit's no good
making a face --sticking tongue out ,etc. no good
heavy make up no good

natural look --candid shot--self shot --and not trying to look like a whore -that is good-

I always bear in mind that this is supposed to be an amateur site and I rate that way. if a girl looks too much like a pro to me then my vote is low regardless of how pretty she is.. on the other han if I have no doubt that the girl is an amateur then my vote is higher. I realize that there are a lot of beautiful amateur girls on here and I may miss the mark on some of them but I just have go by my gut feeling everytime...I also won't vote if I can't at least vote a 7 or higher

I rate the pic as a whole. Doesn't matter how hot the girl is if the pic is so terrible you can't really tell. And sometimes an average looking woman can look much better in some pics due to the circumstances, etc, so that has to count for something for me.

I tend to simply vote based on how much the picture turns me on. I know it is very arbitrary, but it's my vote.

I'm in agreement with F1098 and Dagmar really. I try to judge the pic as a whole, good quality, nice lighting, pose etc... but if it is shitty I don't bother. If she turns me on, I'm straight to the top! lol

I overall rate the girl in the picture, but quality and pose etc count for a lot when I'm rating pictures.
