Weekly Poll (8/29 - 9/5)
Tuesday, September 5, 2006 by Zoomba | Discussion: WinCustomize News
The holiday weekend shifted things a bit and I'm just now getting around to the weekly poll. Last week, I asked who here was planning on participating in the GUI Championships, coming up later this month (expect some pretty exciting announcements in the next few weeks!).
Sadly, fewer of you than I had hoped indicated you would be making some sort of submission. Here are the numbers:
| Will you be competing in the 2006 GUI Championships? | ||
| Yes | 45 | 20.09% |
| No | 179 | 79.9% |
I'm hoping, after you find out what's at stake for the top prize, that more of you will be motivated into competing. But that's news for another week!
This week's poll is on which of the announced features for WinCustomize 2007 you're the most excited about. Vote to the left as usual and check back next week for the results!

Even if only 45 people submitted stuff, it would still be a pretty kickass GUI Champs.

...thats possibly because the poll is a tad intrusive. I'd prefer to come straight into WinCustomize and then take the poll.
....not to be stopped at the front door and questioned before I can even get in. [Which, incidentally ~doesn't work for me. I click anything on that poll and nothing happens. Cant even view the results.]
Never did like polls set up that way.

When did this start?
Is there another wincustomize I don't know about cause that's never happened to me?

Taking a poll should be an option ...not mandatory and in your face as it is now.
..Sorry Zoomba, just my feelings on the subject. Not overly miffed by it ...I can work around it.

| It's IE7 I bet. I had the poll take over my screen too under IE7 but it doesn't happen under IE6 |
Happens now and then with Firefox also.
FF version 1.5.0.6
