This is the nomination thread for Board of the Month of August / September 2009.

Please note the BOTM Rules here:
https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/info.php?do=botm

Let me reiterate the rules for this thread:
  • Only post nominations or seconds, no chatter.
  • All seconds are to be placed in 1 post, with a max of 3.
  • All seconds should include the word "second" or "+1".
  • All posts must be in English.
Please abide by these rules or your post will be removed.

Nominations will be accepted until the 31st of July 2009.

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:

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 King Kovifor or an administrator.

Best of luck to all nominees!

Thank you for your consideration.

Sitename: Libar

URL:
Homepage: http://libar-libar.com
Forums: http://libar-libar.com/libar/vb/index.php

Description: A small friendly community where you come to relax and have fun, meet new and old friends, learn some new things, dicuss some interesting topics, play games and much more. You have a feeling as if you were in a small coffee shop at the corner enjoying your early morning coffee. And the coffee is of course delicious!
Originally it was Croatian, but recently it was made bilingual (Croatian ? English).

Reason for Nomination: This is the first time I have been doing this, so I hope I will make everything right. The site has been around for a year and a half and a lot of work has been done behind the scenes. We have a lot, really a lot extra features, and numerous modifications have been made. It would be too long to describe everything, so just spare a few minutes and come and see.

Test Acount:
Username: Libar
Password: 123321

Regards,

macc

Site Name: The World of Necrotania - Writing Community

URL: http://www.necrotania.com

Description: We are a Writing community with a strong Fantasy and Science Fiction presence in our library. Online since 2002 we have a great group of Authors and Reviewers who contribute to our ever growing community

Reason for Nomination
: Necrotania is unique in how it handles writing submissions. We use a customized bridge to connect eFiction, a fan fiction script, to vBulletin. The connection is seamless and allows data to be shared between the two scripts.

Some key points are
- Custom tabs on user profiles for Your Stories, Your Reviews, and Your Favorite stories. Each tab can be disabled via the control panel
- Streamlined navigation that ties all the related areas of the site together.
- Most recent story listed in Postbit
- Unique utilization of the Social Network features of vBulletin to offer authors and readers new ways to connect with their peers.

We are currently running with two skins. The primary is a custom design I came up with to better reflect the writing nature of the site.

The secondary, called Blue and White, is a slightly modified version of a skin downloaded here (Facebook New I believe was the name). It gives a clean look for those who do not want all the graphics. Both skins can have their width adjusted in the user control panel.


Thanks for your consideration
