I've long since stopped pondering what will make an 'acceptable' image

I participate for the challenge but I can't imagine that anyone would
ever go there to view my images, or anyone else's for that matter. That
interface is simply bizzare. Waiting while the 12 generic images load
before you can even look at the gallery can often take up to a minute -
and once you're actually in and viewing, the rate at which images appear
redefines the word 'sluggish'.
If you have supersonic broadband, maybe you'd hang around for a bit but
I doubt that many would.
Very strange design.
I doubt that faster broadband would help. I expect that the PPG site is
slow because of *very* badly implemented Flash. Every click causes it to
refresh pieces of itself redundantly a number of times. It works slowly
in most browsers, but in Safari it doesn't even allow me to navigate
through any user's complete gallery.
I'd love to see more of the terrific work there, but it's a no-go.
