I see, thanks. That's too bad. I really enjoy seeing how others create their images. However, I was really replying to

by zoneV. I wanted to know why they thought hiding camera settings was somehow important to unbiased judging. That didn't make any sense to me, and I was curious about their thought process.
To me, seeing the camera and the settings is just really fun and informative, and I can't see how that hurts unbiased judging. I agree that anonymous judging is ideal. I'm not fussing about it, just saying it's ideal. However I don't see how camera and settings data would hurt that in any way.
Thanks!
