Vote for vB Board of the Month - April

[s.molinari]

Hello all,

Here it is. I've changed my mind and decided to post the poll. ;)Actually I was just joking before as I am sure most of you know. :)

Please peruse all the boards before you vote and may the best board win.

*don't forget!* Anyone caught rallying for votes, campaigning, or ballot box stuffing will be disqualified from the voting.

MovieForums.net! TWTCommish, i'd like to thank you for all of your hard work on your hacks, features, and your dedication to people.. like me. :(

[hypedave]

how does one submit their forums to be forum of the month ?

[MattR]

DB Forums all the way. Not only does it look pretty, but has lots of knowledgeable people there (*cough*me*cough* ;)) who like to talk RDBMs's.

Come back to this forum around the 15th. You'll find a thread for nominating boards.

I voted for gaming guru, nice style and not overdone

[Jake Bunce]

i think you should consider smachol's suggestion... move this to a forum where only licensed members can vote.

[Ian]

It was close between Gaminguru.com and yaxay.com but Gaminguru got my final vote... There layout rocks.

[ja5es]

Gaminguru.com :)

[KnightOwL]

yaxay.com

As the inspired site for gaminguru has already won a vb of the month. c-pr0mpt.com

-KO-

[TWTCommish]

IMHO, all of c-pr0mpts designs have the same exact feel to them, but that doesn't mean I don't like all of them! :p

Heck, I am c-pr0mpt and I agree completely. LOL

[Fred]

Yaxay got my vote.

[TWTCommish]

Told ya' I'd get my butt whooped. I'd almost be better going up against UltraShock. :D

[Chen]

dBforums. :) I like the simplicity of it. I liked the first version of yaxay but this one with all the table additions is too crowded in a way.

I kind of agree with you here, it did not bring anything new, except the postbit. But it takes too long to load a page with graphics just to read one line. Maybe a little bit overkill, even though it looks kick-ass. It just didn't cut it for me. Sorry.

I have cast my vote for db forums, for they might look simple, but professional! They have integrated their forum into their whole web site in a unique way I have not really seen before.

Sometimes it is not about the bells and glitters, but about the content of the site, the way it is used and the way they worked on it. It is obvious they really cared about it. The crew behind it seems really nice and their expertise matches their personallity.

Should be the killer #1 of board of the month.

Hello Jake,

That would definitely help control the voting but I asked the Jelsoft crew when I started this if it could be put in a "special" forum and they said nah! So we'll have to be patient.;)

[Tolitz]

dbforums :) slick and straightforward, just the way I like it ;)

[Project51]

My 1st evr vote on this forum goes 2 Game guru:D Yaxay is also gr8:)

[chopper]

[Chen]

My bad. htaccess was messed up.

[HenryG2]

Darn, you're really pulling away c-pr0mpt. :D

[etones]

i havent read all the thread, so it might have been mentioned, however dbforums is almost a stock ubb 6 design with a few alterations here and there...

So if it wins, you people all love the enemy :D

One last thing, fastforward (paul) and Matt etc etc and dbforums all rule, im just saying... its a very ubb'esk place ;)

Taz

[Jake Bunce]

ubb has a good design

It's due to the "last active thread" hack with icons. One feature that vB still doesn't offer :(

I tried fastforward's hack, but it's not that helpful for sub-forums. I hope vB3 offers this feature.

[Craig Armstrong]

Man, this was a tough one. But I had to go with Xaxay (how do you pronounce that anyway?).

dbforums

[heretic]

Yaxay: VERY good template work, but slow to load on my modem.

Dbforums: it screams ubb at me :puke:

Ultimate metal: not bad, although the postbit hasn't been touched :(

gamingguru: excellent color choice, although those sigs.... :eek:

movieforums.net: first of all, I didn't hate wing commander, I only slightly disliked it's integration to a movie :p
The green doesn't fit with the color scheme, I think it should be a dark, dark grey that would have a highlight onmouseover


so, it comes down to yaxay and gamingguru, and sorry, but I can't stand incredibly large sigs, so I'm going for yaxay- I should get broadband :o

[Soma]

yaxxay

cuz well it roxxors

[Overgrow]

I think c-pr0mpt's work is beautiful but I went for dbforums... :D

Honestly If I wasn't bias for my own board I would more than likely vote for dbforums as well. Its extremely well done. :)

[NTLDR]

My vote goes to Yaxay, which seems to be down at the moment :(
It has by far the most origional vb design I've seen.

His design looks good on your site :)

[TWTCommish]

I don't think he stole his design. The only thing incrimination would be those buttons, which, I believe, Corey has for sale in various colors. :)

I was giving a compliment, not accusing anybody of anything.

[The Realist]

I must say that Yaxay.com is looking nice with a clean looking layout.

Yaxay.com has my vote.

Yes I have paid Corey for the button set and they are not ripped, feel free to check if you want ;)

Thanks xiphoid, I appreciate the feekback.

[Faruk]

UltimateMetal for me. MarkB's NP hack deserves my voting for him. Besides, I'm not too fond of overly graphical boards. Look spiffy, but for people on slow connections (like me) it's only annoying. Nor does it serve much of a purpose...

Yeah I am setting up the new server tonight. Were some problems today. :(

[NTLDR]

Its up again :D and looking better and running faster than ever! Great work as allways C:\

[DirectPixel]

...I want to vote for dB and Yaxay, but this isn't multiple choice so....Yaxay.:p

[Floris]

I think we have a winner :D Congratulations yaxay.

[Floris]

It is the 15th today! I hope we can soon start another nomination round! (for may)

[Faruk]

Yeah, how about it Molinari, start a thread eh?! :D:D:D ;)

:up:

[DirectPixel]

<---------- Wants to get nominated.:D

[Smoothie]

Go Yaxay!

[c-prompt]

Just want to thank everyone who voted for yaxay. I appreciate it! :)

Congrats c-pr0mpt & Yaxay! :D

Despite the overload of graphics, a great board (but for those with money & high bandwidth, the overload doesn't matter). :up:

So, I say close this poll & start up May votings! :D

[s.molinari]

Yaxay.com is our winner.

Congrats c-prompt!
