Between summer vacations, graduations, the last day of school, Mother’s Day and Father’s Day, your cameras are working on overdrive! Why not share your photos with your friends on Gather?
Here’s some incentive: starting TODAY, Gather will give you 10 points* for every picture you upload!
But you have to snap up this opportunity – you only have until June 30th to cash in!
And, because Gather is a social site - we want you reward you for rating and commenting on pictures too!
So, each day between now and July 1st, Gather will reward the member whose uploaded image receives the most 10 ratings with a $20 Borders Gift Card (scores other than 10’s will not be counted) And, the member who provides the most insightful comment on the winning image will also get a $20 Borders Gift Card each day!
So start uploading, rating and commenting on those photos right now! We can’t wait to see what develops.
*Points will be uploaded on a weekly basis every Monday and reflected on your MyGather page

Although we LOVE photo essays (and will be featuring them on the home-page throughout the rest of the month) the points are given for photos you upload and publish as images. Hope this makes sense.
Everyone come comment on my images when I get them uploaded. I need the gift certificates. :)
The rest of this promotion is wonderful!
"the member whose uploaded image receives the most 10 ratings with a $20 Borders Gift Card (scores other than 10's will not be counted)"
You said IMAGE not images so, therefore, I assume that means you're looking at how many 10s EACH image has and not how many IMAGES carry an overall rating of 10.
To clarify my question even more...LOL Therefore drive-by 10s count?
To clarify some questions about the rating portion of this promotion.
We are not looking at the "average" rating, but rather the number of 10's each photo received.
So, as Dan mentioned if someone gives you a db 1 and that lowers your average, it doesn't matter. All that counts are the number of 10-ratings associated with any particular picture.
Wilma does a good job at clarifying above... we're looking at how many 10's each image gets... not the overall rating/score.
Hope that helps,
Pam
Keep up the great work Gather and contributors.
If, at the end of the day there's a tie (two or more photos getting the same number of 10 ratings) Gather's Editorial Team will choose the winner.
Thanks for the great feedback everyone!
If you want a lot of people to see, rate and comment on your photos you should make them public!
This promotion is great! It's just in time for the launch of the new group Photo Blog Revolution! I hope everyone will join me there!
fun! ;-)

This is the offer
"starting TODAY, Gather will give you 10 points* for every picture you upload!"
I have finished uploading 100 photos just since this incentive started today. Anyone who posts to mine, I will gladly recipricate to yours, but only if you comment on mine.
Please clarify. Thanks.
I believe that this questions was answered above somewhere... images uploaded to articles do NOT count. You must upload the images separately, to your 'Images by Me' page.
