Description:
Aunt Clara's Dominican Kitchen is a website dedicated to promoting the Dominican Republic's culinary culture.

Reason for Nomination:
We turned vBulletin into a fantastic CMS which is fully integrated with our forum. I have to say that the two months spent on another version of the site based on another CMS was a waste of time. vBulletin did exactly what I wanted.

Our pre-vB site is 5.5 years old. We've been running on vB for over a year now. Our site is very popular for our niche, and we have basically no competition. vB has made our site interactive and has improved visitor loyalty tremendously.

Very nice job, I definitely second this one, as well!

Site Name: The World of Necrotania, Writing Community
Site URl: http://www.necrotania.com
Description: We are a writing community that focuses on the Fantasy and Science Fiction Genres, though we accept most any type of work. We offer a place for aspiring authors to post there works and get valuable feedback, as well as a place for readers to find new interests.

Reason for Nomination: We are somewhat unique in our approach to handling stories in that we use eFiction as our archive solution. This integration is nearly seamless, providing not only a single login to the site but consistent look across all areas by using a custom skin that pulls from the vBulletin templates.

In addition, the link now works both ways, providing random stories in vBulletin, as well as a list of the authors posted stories in there profile. The profile page is still being reworked and will soon contain all information on that author; the eventual goal is to replace the eFiction profile page with vBulletin.

vBAdvanced acts as the portal page, providing recently added stories and updated news items on the sites growth.

Since the site opened in 2002 we have constantly evolved and grown into a place that I am very proud to call my corner of the web.

Description: A website community dedicated to catering towards all gaming Guilds and Clans. Clans can advertise for new members, challenge other guilds, and be a part of a great community.
Reason for Nomination: The website has been in development for 2 years. It is just now starting to have PC Gaming Clans come to it for their advertisement and to find other clans for scheduling a competition. The community is growing, slowly, but surely. Changes and mods are still being made to the site every day. As an old former Clan Leader myself, I know how hard it can be to keep your clan together and active. My goal of this site was to give others an easier time and help restore a strong community among each clan.

Description: A forum that tries to bring things from all corners of the computer world and all corners of the real world together! We range from politics, to media, to computer programming, to circuitry.
Reason for Nomination: This forum / site has been my biggest hobby for the past year and half. I have put my blood into it. I've been abandoned many times by my other moderators and administrators but we still stay strong. Our default skin is 100% original and we have an interesting rating system. We have quite an array of mods, wonderful members, and posts and threads.

Description: MK PitStop is a website that helps people with a number of subjects as follows:

Webmasters
Computers
Computer Consoles
Business
Ebay
Gaming
Graphics
And More

MK PitStop allows all ages from 13 upwards. The forum is free and fully moderated to keep all content clean and respectful.

Reason for Nomination: I have been running MK PitStop for 1 Years, 5 Months, 25 days today, this website was started to allow myself and others to help people in the best way as we can. I have been on the computer every day since I started this website, apart from 4 days when I was ill (I even worked on it, on Christmas day). This website is my life and my biggest hobby; I place as much information on there from what I learn.

In the future I hope to add more subjects to the forums so that it can help more people, but at the moment I am trying my best to not put guests off. When I first started the website I tried using a different forum software and was very unhappy with the hard work I had to place in to remove the bugs, but then I went with vBulletin and it was the best thing I ever did with the website. I have installed lots of hacks and even started doing some my self, thanks to vBulletin.com & vBulletin.org with there great community they made this happen more for me.

I would give my right arm to make my forum to become one of the top leading forums on the internet, maybe one day if I keep trying this will happen, but until then I will just hope for my website to win BOTM.

Thank you.
