Site Name: The Mego Museum
URL: http://megomuseum.com/community

Description: Companion forums for the The Mego Museum website, a decade-old spot on the web dedicated to collectors and enthusiasts of vintage 1970's Mego action figures. We were running on IkonBoard 2.2a for years and only recently upgraded to vBulletin, but have already added a lot of nice mods and have done a lot of customization to fit with our member's needs and wants. We offer several different styles, including one that almost perfectly emulates the old IkonBoard for those traditionalists among our group! We also hold an annual (real life) convention, print trading cards to promote the site, and more. We have close to a thousand members and have been adding new registrations daily since we switched to the much-more-robust vBulletin. We offer Arcade games for our members to play, a marketplace to buy, sell and trade their figures, a gallery to host images, and much more!

Reason for Nomination: We're really proud of our community and would like to show it off!

Site Name: Chocobo Heaven

URL: http://forums.chocoboheaven.com/

Description: Chocobo Heaven is a Square Enix based website covering all Final Fantasy Games and Kingdom Hearts Game Series. We have a lot of resources for those games. Our forum may be the only one who has its RPG hack optimized with more than 200 weapons, armors and magics and 100 monsters. We also have an arcade, and 50 forums in which you can interact with our members. Its not because we're "Square Enix" based, that we don't about other things, we have a forum for almost any topic.

Reason for Nomination: Getting Nominated or not, there is the question. I think our community needs to be recognized. You won't regret visiting.

Site Name: Virtual American Airlines

URL: www.virtualaa.com/portal.php

Description: Virtual American Airlines is a site dedicated to simulating real world American Airlines operations, by using Microsoft's Flight Simulator software to allow it's members (pilots) to fly scheduled AA flights and subsequently accumulate flight hours.

Reason for Nomination: We at Virtual American Airlines strive on quality and this is clearly apparent by the way we maintain and operate our website. But what really sets us apart from the rest of the Virtual Airlines in the flightsimming community is our family-oriented environment. We have been together as a "family" since the year 2000. We originally started out as a Virtual Airline named AirPUERTORICO.

We then went through some changes and transitions, but throughout all these years, we have stayed together. I really hope you guys enjoy our website. Like I said before, we are all about quality and putting out the best that we have to offer.

This has been a growing community for a few years now but has never seen the publicity it deserves. It has some features that aren't seen on many other forums. The main being the unique banner with tabs and playable original Nintendo games.

Site Name: Starcraft Vanilla

URL: Starcraft Vanilla

Description: Discussion for the up and coming Starcraft 2, will be offering downloads ranging from RPG's, to Bots on battle.net when SC2 is Released.

Reason for Nomination: A fairly new/low traffic site, offering up a place for people to get together and gossip about the release about starcraft 2. (Greatest game ever :P) I would love for this site to get some exposure since this is my first site and boy is it time consuming. But, this would be very rewarding for me, if this site was nominated. And also if not for me do it for SC2!
