It's interesting that you closed comment but the change is not necessarily a great idea. Imagine if newspapers (WSJ, NYT, etc.) published their on-line news, sports and opinion stories in random order. Perhaps the result your click analysis is simply a reflection of the interest level associated with much of what is published and not the organization. You basically publish everything submitted regardless of quality or potential interest level. If a viewer clicks on two or three weak images, how long can he be expected to keep clicking. I don't have an answer to the quality/interest question but I am quite sure "random" is not the answer.
Good luck!

Your contribution to UHH has consisted of posting 40 comments per year since you joined. Is that enough participation to warrant considering your opinion as valid?
