New WC poll on new library next month
Monday, October 6, 2003 by sig101 | Discussion: WinCustomize Talk
But there is also the option IE/Explorer Toolbar Icon Sets. Does anyone at WC/SD know if this is a reference to a specific app? Like Y'z Toolbar? Or something else? (I think I recall SD previously mentioned revamping WebBlinds but at present WebBlinds only changes the IE toolbar icons. So this also caused me to wonder if there are any plans for a new WebBlinds type app on SD's "to do" list or just it's just not on at all for the near future.)

An update on the poll:

It appears that Rainlendar will not be added any time soon. I'm actually amazed by the boot screens, I didn't think they were that popular. Of course, they are closely followed by Toolbar icons, which isn't much of a surprise. Hopefully the results of this poll will end the debate over how popular Rainlendar would be on this site.

Well, actually, Rainlendar isn't so unpopular in this poll. Samurize, yes, quite obviously.
But if you forget about the boot screens, which is very far ahead of all the others, there is not that much of a gap between the IE toolbar, Trillian and Rainlendar. The last two can be considered a tie, while the toolbar is more popular by only 33% or so. Not a huge lead.
The way I see it, the survey shows that Boot screen are the most popular, followed by a group of 3 apps: IE toolbars, Trillian and Rainlendar. Samurize is quite unpopular.

Yes, but it has over twice the votes of Rainlendar. You can bump around the "numbers" anyway you want, but out of 1432 votes only 213 were for Rainlendar. So, 1219 were for a different choice. I think that the longer you leave this up, the wider gap you will see in the lead (this is based on the growth of votes in the past 4 days).
I guess the biggest point that will be made over this poll is that people are pretty much happy with the libraries the way they are. This poll has been up for quite some time and less than 1500 people voted.

Hum? Toolbar has 326 and Rainlendar has 213. That's not over twice the votes (?)...
| out of 1432 votes only 213 were for Rainlendar. |
Maybe so, but then only 326 out of 1432 were for the toolbar icons. When the votes are spread in 6 answers, of course each one has only a small portion of the votes.
Anyway, if Rainy isn't gonna be added that's fine, but I don't think the votes should be a reason for it.
Anyway I votes for Trillian. But I would still like to see a Trillian, AND a Rainlendar section added. The toolbar, as I said before could be a subsection of WB.

With 486 being the 'majority' (hehehe) and the rest minorities...(see 'first past the post') Of course, turnout was a poor 0.198%....

oops, I meant that boot screens (which is the one in first place) has over twice as many votes.
If it were up to me, I wouldn't add anything
Just more to moderate. But, there are other sites that have thousands (not hundreds) of boot screens on them, so I guess they must be popular. Not sure I would use them unless they had an added feature, though. Of course, you could make a pretty good package with a boot screen, logon, Winstyle and whatever else you use.

Of course in some circumstances (if you were cynical) you could suspect the orange had already been chosen regardless of the result

Personally, I prefer lemons

I prefer chocolate covered oranges.... So, I vote for oranges.
