no, i don't have an invite. no one else does either.
how does ffffound sort its images and "choose" what starts getting added to the main page as you dig through it? it doesn't add everything in the order people tag it as i've never seen my images go up there. in looking through it, it doesn't organize them by your followers or popularity of each image as it has people with very few followers and images with low or 1 add on the front page frequently.
just curious.

I have no idea why either. I actually asked that same question here, and nobody knew either...

how about this, ffffound will ffffail with their silly invite policy. weheart it and all the others doing the exact same thing, only better will be the facebooks in the fffound world of ffffriendster and myspace. ffffuck it I say, who cares about them?

My theory is that they have an algorithm which looks at an image that someone tags that from calculates:
How many other images from that source have been tagged;
How many other images has the tagger tagged, and from where;
How popular are that tagger’s other images;
How popular are the images from that source;
How many people have tagged that same image.From there the have some variable which decides what gets to the top.
This is just a theory, mind.

I am still looking for an AOL chat room invite, anyone?

its definitely not random; common images found in a series seem to always go up together.
i always assumed there were a few "editors" who's selections go to top... but maybe that's unrealistic.
