2003 Awards
Thursday, November 13, 2003 by Leo the Lion | Discussion: WinCustomize Talk
This was touched on in another thread recently but i would love to see some sort of Awards Ceremony (call it what you like) where all the members of WC Community have the opportunity to vote for the best skins of the year. We could have a few catergories but not too many - possibly keep it to 2 - Windowblinds and Others. There are many ways it could work but we do not want to make too much extra work for the mods and admins.
Hopefully Stardock or WC might like to put up a prize or two if we speak nicely to Brad or has anyone else got any ideas.....First prize a night out on the town with IR, second prize spelling lessons with Kona, third prize a trip round the space ship Enterprise with Fuzzy.......no guys i am joking and this is purely an idea which please feel free to shoot down in flames or give your own opinion

I like the Idea, It would almost be better if it was done by a ouside source. I think it would be hard for the por admins, me being one, not to get accused of favertisum, etc.. perhaps if it was simply a each wincustomize member got one vote. it might work.

Queen's ? wait a sec, just because our president can not make up his mind and changes the reasoning behind the things he does on a reagular basis and he might have a funny walk and smirk a lot doesn't mean, ah, nevermind,... But I still think thats going a bit far, don't you Jafo?
Queen indeed..

I really wish Stardock would sponsor something like this
Competition is a good thing. It makes everyone step it up a notch and we would most likely see some great work come from it
I know it would motivate an average skinner like myself to really take the time to do a higher quality skin or icons, etc.
Would I win?...No,...Honestly, I can say right now that my vote would most likely go to Pixtudio, MikeB, Hippy, Mormegil, Grayhaze...but you never know what may pop up out of a contest. It would sure kick in some 'missing' motivation to skin something though and that would be enough for me right now
I think the 'One' vote per WC member would be ideal.

I would stack the votes in Leo's favor so he can spend an evening with UzEE.

I hope it goes ahead. I've been looking for an excuse to get my dress out and give it an airing. Haven't worn it since the GUI's....

Well...I guess with 23 or so, out of 39 posts not relevant to the topic it's not going to be taken that seriously
Oh well...In theory it sounds like a good plan
