CPF homepage contest --> Congrats to Chris M.

[DavidW]

Just a link please. I'll close this thread at 12 midnight PST on the 15th. Voting will commence on the 16th.

If you have any Q's or comments please post them here.

In that thread these guidelines were posted: <BLOCKQUOTE><font size="1" face="Verdana, Arial">quote:</font><HR>Looks like the primary design point will be KISS: Keep It Simple Silly

For Chris' sake this will go until the end of April.

I'll have members of this BB vote for which one they like the most. Only members with a number 1491 or less will be allowed to vote. Why? I don't want you guys registering new names just to vote.

The winner will recieve a Brinkmann Legend LX. If my CC is rejected then the prize will be work credited on the FP. (The prize will be E2e, V82, MN03, 12 SF123A's and an F04.)

* I need the links that are on there now.

* I need to be able to add or delete more links as time goes on. If it's too complicated to make mods then that's a minus.

* Minimal graphics are a plus.

* Matching the BB colors are a plus.

Members are free to suggest what they would like to see or NOT see on the frontpage. I'll add to this post with an edit.<HR></BLOCKQUOTE>

There's one more possible entry. Let me find it then voting will commence.

 

[yclo]

David,

Do you mean BlackBart's (#911) entry?

YC

 

[DavidW]

Yes. Thanks for finding that.

 

[Bushman]

I vote for YCLO provided that the graphic could be made larger... The search light thing across the screen is COOL

 

[Flashlightboy]

I'm voting for a combo thing. I like the yclo opening but wish it were larger. However, I like the easy to use format of Chris' design.

Now, what will it take to put the two of you together?

 

[Photon]

I like Jeff's idea. Yclo's animation is excellent.

I vote for ycol, or yclo in combination with Chris'.

 

[Big Tex]

yclo

 

[Quickbeam]

Definately Chris'. Maintains the consistency of the design of the board. If YC's could be incorporated as well, that would be great.

YC - did you use Swish for the spotlight or did you code that in Flash by hand(!) ? I dabble in Flash too.

 

[Josh]

i like them all and can't make my mind up

 

[Darell]

They are all excellent. Somebody early on guessed that we'd want a combo, and of course whoever that was, was right on!

Be great to have the yclo flash deal for the first entry to the site, but then we'd need Luff's or Chris's page next. I really like the functionality of Luff's page (choice to hop straight to an interesting topic), but I like the more consistent design elements (yes, the suppositories) of Chris's page.

BlackBart's entry gets first runner up as a mimimum.

I didn't help at all, did I?

 

[Empath]

Both Chris M's and Luff's are great. They load fast, and there is no additional overhead and time involved in downloading superfluous routines.

For carrying the theme of what is inside CPF, I vote for Chris M's.

 

[ho71ko]

My vote for Chris!
Matches the site design very well and loads quick. Simple, clear, "form follows function"

[bwcaw]

I vote for yclo! I think the light thing was
cool, and it loaded fairly quickly too.

 

[**DONOTDELETE**]

ChrisM.
Ditto above. Friendly, humble, loads fast, no unnecessary verbiage,
and no pop up ads!

 

[larry]

CHRIS M because i like the k.i.s.s. principle. its concise and to the point.
good job chris.

 

[Roy]

Wish I could do half as well as all of the entries! They are all very good, but having to pick one, I pick the one done by Chris.
