Hasn't voted | He did delete his accounts in August... then he made a forum admitting it and he got deleted. Shame... | |

Voted 10/10 | That's like going to jail for knocking off a liquor store for 50 bucks. He should have at least gone for POTD! Ha ha! | |

Hasn't voted | No, no, no! I voted on my own photo. It was an old scam that I did. But that's history. I transferred this album to another member before I got banned which it was then deleted, and then Matt restored it. At least this album remains for the current "Photo of the Hour". | |

| Alex Wood | Just wondering, but | |
Voted 10/10 | does someone come on here every hour and pick a new photo of the hour? or how does that work? | |

| Mark Straub | Re: Just wondering, but | |
Hasn't voted | It is judged automatically by the photo with the highest number of votes that was created in that hour. | |

Hasn't voted | No worries, dude, it happens. When 4,348,948 pictures get submitted every hour, not everyone always sees or votes on everything! | |

| suddendescent | Re: Just wondering, but | |
Hasn't voted | There really are so many picts submitted every hour ? Then I'm wondering why my crummy picts get chosen... Actually my crummy pictures are the reason for the pseudo (suddendescent) I chose considering the lack of amazing topography to uncover at home. To explain more clearly; I figured that I'd start off acceptably with a nice image of a rocky mound. Although I knew that after showing unimpressive topography I'd gadually fall from grace !... But I haven't reached the point where I'd showcase the mound in the middle of my home town (Montreal Qc)! Actually there is sensational mountainous scenery to uncover here in Quebec. But nobody wants to visit... Happy holidays everyone ! | |

Hasn't voted | I got two photos of the hour yesterday. Both from a single batch of six photos. They were uploaded about 1 minute apart. How did that happen? | |

Voted 10/10 | I find it so thrilling to get a Summitpost photo of the hour as there are some brilliant photographers on this site ! Thanks for everyone who votes, love this site :) | |

| Prettinuce | Random | |
Voted 10/10 | I really think it just might be a random choice of photos uploaded. I certainly don't think that many of the photos of mine that have been chosen even compare to some of the incredible shots on SP. But I will gladly accept the acknowledgment! | |

| mrchad9 | Yes... Random | |
Hasn't voted | I find it hard to believe the Photo of the Hour is even working at all. I've had a couple make it within moments of posting, before they even got a vote. There are currently 873 photos (4.4%) in this album with no votes, some with just a few hits. Completely random. | |

Voted 1/10 | Long story, Chad. Here's a summary. There used to be a POTH display here. It was based on the highest-scored photo submitted in a given hour. If no picture got a vote, then the first one submitted that hour got the honor. There was always a mad rush just after the hour to maximize "vote exposure," which was often a launching point to POTD for the photo crowd. Eventually, they removed POTH, but this silly album remained, and it self-attaches. So POTH means absolutely nothing, but some think it does! | |
