are you a lumper or a splitter ? (these are technical terms from biological cladistics)

find out at  http://symbiostock-search.com (http://symbiostock-search.com)

it compares # of categories with # of images

the last 2 columns are the filter level yellow = 1, red = 3 and the 'show-unrated' - 1 = yes

I'll be changing these to more descriptive values shortly

Thanks.  Where does that info come from?  I notice that my site (ShazamImages.com (http://ShazamImages.com)) has a 1 and a 0.  So how did my site get a 1 (yellow)?

first,i mis-typed - it should be 1 = green, 2 = yellow. 3 = red

no one  rates sites - these numbers show what the owner has decided to show from other sites.   so if you're set to 2 your site will display results for all green and yellow images.
 
these values are set on the sym/network page.

----
a separate process allows you to rank(1 = best, 2 = average, 3 = less average) and add ratings to your images. easiest is by setting the defaults on the author page. eg, I have mine to rank all my new images as 2's, and give them all a green rating

you can also edit indiv images if you need to - eg, I have a few yellows

OK, thanks.  That makes sense now.
