[May 2008] BOTM Nomination Thread

This is the nomination thread for Board of the Month of May 2008.

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

Nominations will be accepted until the 30th of April.

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:

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!

Description: Donation based Yorkieshire Terrier Community. Website has only been up for a month and already has a steadily growing membership base as well as great integrated modifications. Currently running VB 3.7 RC2 with many hacks including vBtube, vBclassifieds for auctions, ibproarcade, and many more. Many great styles that are W3C certified and very original! Fun community with a fun base of members.
Reason for Nomination: This site is a great example of using all the great new features of vBulletin 3.7 and the amazing modifications released by the members here at vB.org and modified for site use by administration. Also, the site has a very fun and easy to navigate interface! Very fun site that is thinking outside the forum box and more into the community/social networking box.
