What I usually do is first read the description.  Then I grade the image based
on its own merit.  I then adjust my given score based on what I read, and end
up with a final score.

My orignal score was based somewhat like that of the French system.  I never
gave more than an 18, and below 10 was for images that just didn't come of
good.  That's how I did it.
