I've been working on some speed enhancements to solve some of the lag issues on the site and while they aren't yet live, one change to the voting calculations may have been the root of voting issues.

I was trying to limited the effect of new voters coming in to only vote on a single image and in doing so made things far more complicated than it needed to be. As such, performance on those calculations was taxing the system.

So... I took some of that out and went (for now) to a pure average calculation and things seem to be moving quite fast.

For those of you who may have avoided voting recently due to site errors, I hope you'll give it another go. And if you still get the error, please let me know!

Thanks!

Thank you to the 38 photographers who took part in last weekend's tenth edition of the World in Pictures Day event. The gallery is now available for viewing, so please take a look and let them know what you think of their images.

The main speed improvments I was working on have now been implemented so you should get around much faster than before. The groundwork is now set for some even cooler stuff very soon. Also, email from the site should be working. If you were having problems with that, you might try again.
