I didn't add the tidbit about who casted the ballots, that was a part of the forum's script. There's 3 options, you can see the result before voting, after voting, and only after the poll is locked. I think in the next poll, I'll try the 3rd option and see if it keeps everyone on their toes.

Lance, I think that is what Simon Brown used to do on the main forum.
Poor Oma. I think we all had a hard time with it - I did for sure because I like them all very much.

Only 50% of the membership voted in the poll. That's unfortunate, I would like to have seen more participation.

50% is pretty good, Peter. In the past, especially at the old forum, it would take less than a third to vote, so I think it's a pretty good turnout. I'm sure the main board has similar issue.
Edit: As I expected, my banner didn't get a sniff. I knew it didn't stand a chance when I submitted it, but that's ok. I saw it coming.
It looks like Possum and Goonfella has the slight edge, while there's a 3 way tie between Peter, Barbieq, and Welshblue. It looks like there'll be a 2nd round after all.

Ha Lance your banner wasn't really that bad. Only thing I thought was it was a bit dark. But not too bad for a quick one. At least it was way better than mine. I didn't even submit one. ciao OMA

Well then, I guess 50% is good. I stand corrected.

Sorry, I've not been on and I missed the voting. It was a bad week in so many ways. I won't muck up this thread with complaints, I'll save that for the rant thread.
Thanks to everyone who voted for my entry. I'm so sorry I didn't get to vote for all the ones I really liked. I've not been online in the past few days. I even let the comps on the other forum go unattended until just a little while ago.
I saw the comments that were made about the text and I agree now that I've had a closer look. More on that in the rant thread. Should I make the changes or is that allowed? I'm not even sure what the next plan is.

Possum, I can understand how you feel.
On-topic, I checked the tally, and it appear Possum, Goonfella, and Peter has the lead with Possum the leader with 10 votes. There's a 3 way tie between barbieq25, Helen, and WelshBlue.
Part of me want to call it with the top 3 and end the competition. I think it has gone on long enough.
What's the thoughts, folks? Chime in!
I would like to move on to more competitions.

Yeah, I think the top three win. I mean they got the most votes. More competitions, please!

Same here. We`ve had plenty time with this one so I also think we should just finish now with the top three.

I agree. Maybe I should add a thread in Fun Challenges for people to drop idea, suggestion to run for a competition. One idea I had was a to turn a photograph into a work of art that I have seen on Pxleyes.com, for example, look here. I think that will challenge us to push our skill to the limit.

Does anybody know when Lance is putting up the new poll?

What new poll?

Aren't we supposed to be voting on the top Three? If not, what happens next.

From what I understand the top three win so you have a choice of which one you want to use - like choosing skins. Maybe I`m wrong but that`s what it seems like to me.

Oh I see, guess I misunderstood. Thanks Goon. How will we know when the skins are available? Will they be options in "profiles?"

I haven't been able to find a hack to allow you to choose which banner, but I did find a hack to randomly display the top 3 banners, so they'll be on the top of the fourm. Best I can do now unless Welshy or Sarkut find that hack.
