How does image score work?

Posted under General

I don't understand the image score, and I think I would like it if someone could explain it. It looks like I can't vote pictures up or down to change their score, and I'm not sure if the score is in any way related to the picture's favorite count.

  • If you are Gold member or higher: You can choose to vote each post up or down (or not vote at all, of course). When you favorite a post it will automatically receive +1 score (as well as +1 favorite count). Score from favoriting and score from voting are separate, so you can give an image +2 score by both voting it up and favoriting it.

    If you are a basic member: You can't affect post score at all. Favoriting a post with increase its favorite count, but not its score.
