[June/July 2008] BOTM Nomination Thread
This is the nomination thread for Board of the Month of June 2008.
Please note the BOTM Rules here: https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/info.php?do=botm Nominations will be accepted until the 31st of May When nominating please post the site name, URL to the forum, a short description what makes your board stand out from default vBulletin, and a reason for nomination that will motivate others to second the nomination. If the staff feels that a nomination post is too promotional it will be edited accordingly. Any sites without a name, URL, description and reason for nomination will NOT be entered into the poll. Please ensure that your nomination is in the format: Quote: Originally Posted by Sample Nomination Site Name: vBulletin.org URL: www.vbulletin.org - this must be clickable Description: Official vBulletin Modifications Site Reason for Nomination: Not Nominated. This is an example nomination. When seconding sites, please ensure that you use the same post for the maximum of 3 allowed seconds. Any seconds not located in your first seconding post will not be counted. Please also ensure that you quote the nomination post you are seconding in your post (Use Multi-Quote Option if you are nomination multiple boards). If there is no name or URL provided then the post will be ignored when the nominations are counted. Also, please make sure that you are seconding a forum that has already been nominated by its forum owner. Any seconds for a forum that has not been nominated yet will be counted as null and void. Please posts only nominations or seconds, no "Thank you" posts are needed, they clutter the thread and will be deleted. Any queries regarding the BOTM Contests should be sent via PM to Danny.VBT. Best of luck to all nominees! |

Site Name: Tech555 - All the Tech Info You Need
URL: www.tech555.com Description: Technology Discussion Group - Computers | Programming | Multimedia | Internet and Software | Gaming Reason for Nomination: Design and Layout:- Tech555's layout, navigation and the way of content arranging is really catchy in order to make the user get what he wants. Content and Relevancy:- I believe that Content is God !! Tech555, being categorized as an Educational Website is exclusively dedicated to Technology discussion and it has all the required and necessary Forum categories, it being Mobiles, Computers, Programming, Web Development, Graphics and Designing etc. Gallery and Gaming:- The Picture Gallery and Arcade are simply an added fun to attract visitors, thus making Tech555 a home for every kind. Keeping it Clean and Beautiful:- Keeping colors bright, simple and soothing to eyes and mind. Thus, keeping visitors stay longer. Its passed just 2 months since I have bought the license and have already put in so many efforts day and night in understanding vBulletin and customizing according to user's needs. However, the community is still lacking its activeness but already have over 280 members in 2 months and growing rapidly, thus proving Tech555 having a great potential. This time its a complete new design (not the darker one), definitely hoping to get nominated this time !! You can even login at Tech555 with the following details and feel like home :):- Username:- test Password:- testing Thank You |

Site Name: VoetbalPortaal.nl...a 'Web 2.0' forum at last!
URL: VoetbalPortaal.nl Description: Exclusive Dutch-Turkish soccerforum. It's a niche forum actually. It's about football/soccer in Dutch, mainly by and for Turkish people... speaking Dutch. Go figure! Reason for Nomination: Exclusive, Unique...and balls! Why VoetbalPortaal.nl stands out of the crowd? Top 10 reasons: 1. Original and unique: the 'clean and fresh' template is fully custom and is made in sparetime. Almost every button, icon and other grafx is customized aka replaced by a famfamfam-icon. 2. Exclusive: free registration, but you're expected to fully participate. We dare to choose for quality instead of quantity! 3. Delicate balance between Web 2.0 and old-skool-forum: I wanted all the Web 2.0 goodies, my members were just happy with vBulltein default install 4. Ad-free: for logged in users, that is... 5. Dymamic headers: every (sub)forum has it's own forumheader 6. Iconized: Every category has it's own slik and distinguising icon 7. Optimal (re-)use of navbits: on forumhome and vBA, the navbar is reserved for a banner 8. SEO'd: actually only manually, without vBSEO of ZOINT SEO 9. vB-Optimized: every unused whitespace and built-in function (like forumjump) stripped 10. A 'clean and healthy' community: on regular basis we clean up our userbase. No-posters, double-accounts and pain in the asses are removed. That's why our record was just 300 users and we've kicked out a bunch of them! Links to some pages: Main page/vBadvanced portal Forumhome Hall of Fame: the Awards page A random topic PS: The Beta in the version number is not a Web 2.0 feature; it's really in beta and it's not perfect at all...yet! PS: The site is currently only optimized for Firefox... |

Spectra Forum :: Laser Pointer Discussion
Site Name: Spectra Forum Site URL: http://www.spectraforum.com Short Summary: A discussion about lasers, laser pointers, and the sort. Reason for Nominating: This board is clear, not cluttered, and the theme is very lasery. There are thousands of helpful posts regarding the safe use of lasers and laser pointers (ones that can burn, melt, and pop balloons), and about which companies are scams, and which are good quality. Our users are very knowledgeable when it comes to the world of lasers, and anyone thinking of buying a burning green laser, or any other laser, such as blue lasers, yellow lasers, purple lasers, or anything of that sort, should consult with this forum first. Do it Yourself Info There are also a number of helpful DIY tutorials on how to easily make your own burning laser for cheap, that will last a long time. Basically, this board has saved a lot of peoples' money (and retinas), and it contains a lot of useful information regarding the world of lasers and laser technology. We have also given away a few lasers in contests for free, to help people get started with their hobby. It also looks pretty awesome in my opinion. :D :o :D :o http://www.spectraforum.com Want to try it out yourself?
