What does -t +n mean? Who judges the drawings?

Baldur

That's not judging, that's an attempt to correct spelling.Remove the letter t somewhere above that comment and replace it with the letter n.

kmkagle

I know it wasn't judging, I've seen it and didn't know what it meant. I'd still like to know who does the judging?

matthew

You do the judging... Everyone who votes on a pic does the judging...

kmkagle

Matthew, if that's the case then why did some with less votes win? I'm curious.

knkagle, some of us who make typing errors are embarrassed by our own mistakes. We can't correct the comment so we use that method to try to put it right.

Did you know you use a different part of your brain to spell than you use for reading and comprehension and that it is a memory issue and not in any way an intelligence issue? Did you also know that before the first dictionary was published there was not a wrong way to spell any word so long as your reader could understand it? So if you are like me, not such a great speller, remember this word: heterography (and no I’m not sure that’s the correct spelling,) it’s the use of different letters or groups of letters to represent the same sound or sounds. The next time someone gets on to you about your spelling tell him or her you are practicing heterography, or that you intended to be heterographic.
There is an interesting article about Noah Webster at
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Noah_Webster
He is credited with writing the first American dictionary.
There is also one on spelling reform that is quite interesting, or at least I found it to be

Considering what it means, it would be logical if heterography had different spellings By the way - Hukked on foniks wurked fur me!!

Solosater... Many authors do this do pre-describe an accent or the way someone would speak...

Though it just bothers me if I see a mistake and then don't correct it >_< ... since it is my mistake...

I confess, I do all my comments in Word then spell-check, copy & paste. I cheat!
