Theyre all good but I like Havoc, the changing dog image for each tab sold it to me

Re: WOTM Voting - March 2008 Award

Was a tough decision between Havoc and Fleur De Sel, But I think Havoc just knicks it for me, just for the sheer fact of the rollover navigation with the dogs, absolutely loved it.

For me, it's a two horse race.... except one horse is, in fact, a dog and the other is a crepe.

Fleur has it for me.

Re: WOTM Voting - March 2008 Award

This issue has been with WF since the issue has been discussed few month ago! Most of the members dont really care to give a positive feedback to this matter.. But recently I saw your effort in advertising through the main page, that's is a good effort.

Voting a website that you have never seen before will takes more than "Two Minutes"!
I my self take an average of 4-5 minutes on each website and the total time to visit all page is around 20-30 minutes for 10 website I never visited before

So you guys should find the most effective way to promote this.. good luck mate

Personally, it takes me seven or eight minutes at maximum, and I'm fairly careful about who I vote for.

I know straight away once I open all the sites in all tabs. I can see which is poor and close that tab immediately. Then there is usually two left, if not one. I could spend a minute or two deciding, but no more.

That is what I do all this time... playing with the tab
Anything attract my attention, I will leave the tab open. For anything else.. I will close them so I can concentrate on it.

For April issue, can't wait to see the changes

Huh? You said in the above post that it takes you a lot of time and you study each website in detail over 20-30 minutes?

Changing your mind now? lol
