This will be the thread that we use for the submissions for the February member spotlight. It will be only v5 series forums right now, since v6 is still in beta as of this writing. It is also the last chance to become eligible for the six month grand prize. You can either post your site in this thread, or post in a separate thread, but please put in the title something about Feb. submission, etc. Thanks.

Beginning in April, we will begin judging v6 sites and only v6 sites, but the same rules will still apply. Modifications are only 20% of the score. Site integration, design, color scheme, and user experience are also judged.

once again (but this time majorly re-written)...



when reviewing this site, please create a user (e.g. ubbdev), as there are many many features that i have made that are only visible if you are a member. for instance, the dynamic navigation bars.

for further information the control panel rewrite/layout and moderator tools, please contact me and i will provide a tour and/or screenshots. laugh

Yes, it's just v5 right now... starting with the next one in April, it'll be just v6 from then on, so we'll hear from those with v5 about it not being fair either... smile

Good luck everyone who has entered so far, some very nice sites. Entry deadline is midnight on the 15th (I guess that would be 11:59pm on the 15th, right before the 16th).

Oh the contrary. Failure of any site doesn't make me happy. There are several people over there who can be quite creative when they want to be. I have no interest in seeing 411hype fail whatsoever, and I have helped them many times over the last few months answering questions via ICQ, etc. I'm sure they're more rightfully concerned with who's been hacking their boards frequently. Heh.

I was only clarifying since 6.0 sites weren't allowed in this contest. Seemed like an innocent misread of Allen's post.

Lastly, I took a quick visit to see how things were progressing, and I'm not sure how their 6.0 could be judged for the contest even if it were allowed since it's barely customized whatsoever from out of the box. laugh That's some brass balls!

Jigga, just for you, go ahead and enter your site... I am sure the judges will take into consideration the "originality" of your front page too: http://www.411hype.com/ - I don't think you'll wanna see the top 10 results with what you have up so far... tipsy

Nice looking site Lucia... I don't think any of the judges use opera, tho we do have a few that check in NS.

Allen,

Just out of curiosity what browsers will the judges be using? Also can we get a break down of the criteria the judges will be using? Like 20% hacks, 20% design, 20% tech and etc...

Dawg,

Thanks Dawg for the compliments!! Your site is way killer!! Looks as if the contest will be close.

Best o luck to everyone.

well it looks okay in NS, but not great.. frown bane of my life..

Trouble was I spent a lot of time redesigning the way the forum would look, because IMho the default UBB looks really cluttered.. but every so often, I guess I screwed up a table tag, and just don't have the heart to rework it so it works in opera too (opera only accepts totally valid html, so must be that I suck.. ahh well)

Rodster, all criteria are judged equally, appropriate modifications, color scheme, site integration, user experience, and design. If one of them is absent (for instance, if your forum is not integrated into your site at all, just a link from your home page), then that is enough to most likely eliminate it from consideration for the top spots, the rest are just that good.

Most judges use IE, a few use NS, I don't know of anyone that uses opera. If your site isn't viewable in NS, then that falls under the "design" category and will get it eliminated.
