I find similar findings. Mine are more back to back, same image, so I always think, in those instances, being an IT guy by day, that maybe what I think happened didn't happen, but it's more noticeable the way you all describe it. I've also noticed the terrible art, (thought it was just me) but I delved deeper on some of those. I find them in the 'random artwork' section as well. When I look at the profiles, many of them, they've been members going back to 2006 in some cases, haven't posted anything since 2008, don't seem to be active members, yet that artwork comes up in the art duels as well. I always want to skip those duels because sometimes they come up against another piece that is equally as horrible and how do you decide on that? And I am just noticing I already commented here..Guess it can be considered a follow up? lol

Original Post: Repeated images in the art duel

I can't help but notice some images come up in the art duel over and over. Often several times per day... If the selections are based on common key words out of thousands of images and artist, I find it odd for one particular image to come up 4 times or more in one day. I go through the art duel often in hopes of finding some good art, and sometimes I do, but that seems to be pretty rare as most of the art that comes up is not very good. I know my art is not perfect or the best out there and I don't want to be so critical, but where is the good art? I've said it before that the art should be better categorized in groups... photography with photography... oil with oil... digital with digital... etc. I know there is a lot of good artist and photographers out there and I'm sure there are many here on Art Wanted. And there are...How can we find the rest of them?
