New Sliding Scale for Judging: Click on image to make larger

How to use a sliding scale:
Take note of the grade you are scoring, the coloured sections are broken up into blocks and shows the score that should be assigned to an image based on the description below it. In some cases an award may encompass several sections below.
For example:
B Grade, an honour should be assigned to an image that fits the descriptions of any of the first three boxes from the left of the table.

A Grade, an honour should be assigned to an image that fits the descriptions of any of the first two boxes from the left of the table.

Salon grade, an honour should be assigned to an image that fits the description of the first box from the left of the table only.
