There's been some mention of things the site is missing. I don't think the former voting booth would be something the site would be better off with, if only for the susceptibility to abuse and discontent.
So here's my idea:
Be your own booth. Set up your own 1-5 or 1-10 scale, or whatever. Whatever parameters you choose, as well. Be it aesthetics, artistic merit, color, technical merit, etc.
But here's the catch: for each number offered, substantiate it with a reason. Good, bad, or otherwise... come up with a "why".
Last two things, and they're the most important.
A) No hit and run number, and go. If you choose to use this idea, do it all the way. And B) please, please, PLEASE do not leave a score with the expectation of one in return, or as reciprocation because one was left for you. Do so ONLY because a given image moved you to provide insight.
