Categories for points - revisited

[SiCK]

Sorry, I've been off doing other DesignsBySiCK.com business things. I looked at the voting for submitted category results, they aren't all that great.

Seriously, 3 people voted yes to a clown design belonging to the BUG category.

So, I'm going back to plan B (voting was plan C). There will be 10 people allowed to categorize a single design. The most common will be accepted. Anyone who submitted the entries that used the most common categories will be awarded points.

So... GAME ON... start categorizing for real! The points awarding will start happening in the next days.

Thanks to wienerin for this post...

I finally figured it out - I don't follow words very well - I do better with pictures.

Anyway, hope this helps - on the left side of the home page, click on "Design Sets" and then click to a page # - page 1, 2, 3, etc. Then click on "Vote for a Design"




On the next page, each design that needs categorizing will have a link to do so underneath the picture:

Thanks for this excellent explanation - I've got to go out for a couple of hours, but will certainly have a go at this when I get back. I had hesitated to get involved before as it sounded as if it was getting complicated!
Thank you for all that you do for us - I know every one of us is grateful for this mega undertaking,

Guess we will keep working on this. Do we need to start on page one again?

When categorizing a design I look at the design and decide where I would first look for it. Then if I could not find it there where would I look. I am not putting more that 2 choices on a design. If everyone would try this it would better place the designs where they need to be.

Ok, now with the explanation I think I can catagorize a few designs here and there.

Brigitte - Good idea. I'll try that. Cathy

I think this is an excellent suggestion for most of the designs. There are some types that easily fall into several categories, such as vehicles. They can be trucks, cars, transportation, men, and occupations come to mind. For the most part, however, I will stick to 2 categories. I am avoiding the categories embroidery, misc., and other. I will only use them if I cannot find another category.

Good plan to avoid Misc. I think that if it fits anywhere, then it shouldn't be in misc.
I would like to see a category for linens, because there are lots that should go there, but then I think the animals is way too many.
