“Del*te Me Uncensored” is a Flickr group that invited critique that is “unfettered, unrestrained, and may seem unforgivable.”
Group members are invited to show “those striking, unique, incredible images that represent your idea of photographic greatness.” And then the group will critique the shot, voting for it to be saved or deleted. Ten ‘delete’ votes and your image is dropped from the pool. Ten ‘save’ votes and your image is eligible for transportation to an afterlife reserved for only the most deserving photographs: The Folio.
