Chito we have not yet actually worked out how we will decide the outcome if I remember rightly.
Doing the polling on here is really awful & nobody has been able to come up with a good system.
I'd like to see some more entries because remember we can do up to 3 each. I actually thought that we had until 15 April so I extend the deadline to then.
Anyone got any ideas on voting? PM sounds good to me at this stage.
How many do we want to use 3?
Let me know by Sunday night your time since I seem to be about half a day ahead, I'll make it Monday night my time. Gives us a bit of leeway.
Still time for more entries people! Please?

@ barbieq25: Thank you for your reply. I have a small suggestion for making the poll? The competition currently has 6 participants with 9 banners between all of them. So what if you made a poll thread with 9 answers and the top 3 with the most votes wins. The answers can perhaps be set up like this (according to those who currently entered): - Sargon III A
- Pixey A
- Ella A
- Goonfella A
- Goonfella B
- WelsBlue A
- barbieq25 A
- barbieq25 B
- barbieq25 C
You decide on how many answers each voter can choose and in case of a tie, I guess you make a separate poll for those in the tie only. Just throwing a few cents out there lol.

Great entries from BP too! Ever so pleased you did those equations ones. Chito, in theory that is how it should work - same as on the main forum but for the life of me I cannot set it up that way & we have tried a couple of times. What we really would like is the image right beside the vote button. If you have any ideas on how to make this work, I'd love to hear it - or better still do it I am not that tech savvy. The only person I ever saw do it was Lance & it only worked the first time. Any help with this at all Chito would be much appreciated. ;D

Great entries Barbieq! Especially the Fans one. It's going to be hard to decide.
I have so many versions of the Equations I hope I picked the right ones to enter. And, what the heck, I threw in one I didn't finish in time for the last competition. Whew!

The only person I ever saw do it was Lance & it only worked the first time. Any help with this at all Chito would be much appreciated. ;D barbieq25, I currently have a ProBoard forum that I use for testing purposes of other things I work on and I have no issues starting a poll and setting it up the way I described in my last post above, with all the poll choices at the top and the banner images below them. I too tried to set it up the way you'd like it with the banner right beside its poll choice, but as far as I know there's no way to do that with these ProBoards and I could not find a Mod/hack that would allow us to set it up that way. These ProBoards are pretty limited to what we can do with them. The only thing about setting up a poll is that it doesn't allow me to add more choices other than the default 8 choices that show up when setting up the poll. I click the link "Click to display more answer fields" but nothing happens. Maybe because I'm using Firefox, but I'm not sure. I don't understand why it won't allow you to even set it up the normal, default way. I had no problem setting up a poll on my test forum. The only thing that I can think of that may be causing that issue is perhaps a certain hack or mod was installed previously for something else by someone and it's now causing the poll to not function properly. I can help out and try to set up a normal poll on here and see if it'll work, but I'll need access to start polls lol.

Are the votes counted yet?

Post by barbieq25 on Apr 21, 2012 10:47:44 GMT
It closes tomorrow but there are 2 @ 5 votes, 2 @ 3 votes & 1 @ 2 votes - looks like we may have to make a decision on whether we want to go for a tie break or use these 5. We will wait until after tomorrow & decide then. Such great entries - hard time deciding that is for sure.

I see all the new banners are up and running. Looks grrrrreat! ;D I finally got my arse into gear mate I've also spent a frustrating/ lost hour messing around with putting the option of which banner people want in profiles. No luck ... I dunno if it's conflicting with the Random Banner code ? Unless there are other ways, of doing it ... if people want to choose a banner from profile, we'd have to whittle the 5 down to 1 I'll get onto the proboard code boards and find out if there's a way ...

Thanks, Welsh for putting them up and Barbie for hosting the comp. And to all who made this happen.

Banners look nice. The only thing about the new black skin's design is that I guess some of the graphics carried over onto the light default skin that I use:
