How can i allow users to rate pictures?
Voting on images is a simple and effective way to gather feedback, make decisions, or engage a community. Whether you want to compare visual ideas, select a favorite, or create a fair ranking, image-based voting helps turn subjective impressions into clear results.
Typical use cases include choosing the best photo for social media, selecting a design or logo, running photo contests, comparing creative concepts, or gathering feedback on visual content in marketing, education, or product development.
With PollUnit, there are several ways to have photos and images evaluated. Depending on whether you want to run a competition, a simple vote, or a detailed comparison:
- Photo contests
Create a photo contest where images compete against each other. Participants can vote for or rate their favorites. This is ideal for community campaigns, challenges, or public competitions. - Votes in table or list view
Images can be displayed in a list or table format, making it easy to compare many photos at once. Participants can vote for or rate each image, which works especially well for larger collections. - Surveys with images
In classic polls, you can use photos as answer options. Participants vote for one or multiple images or rate them using a star or score-based system. - Pairwise comparison
With pairwise comparison, two images are shown at a time and participants choose the better one. This method is particularly effective for creating clear rankings and reducing bias.
