The boardowner could get a image in his Profile or such, to show he is the owner of a board of a month, maybe with link and everything....


that are just idea from myself, not sure what the rest of the staff thinks about

Yup, that would be interesting Xenon, I just thought about this (would require alot of effort I think) but would be even more interesting, adding a Board link directory, like hacks, but then people could nominate them with links like they are currently doing with the hacks..

What do you think about this?

:rockwoot: I am back from a nice sleep

Along with the judging criteria: Design, originality and content, another criterion should be integration. How well did the web-designer integrate their forum with the overall site.

I agree those would/should be the main parts to the judging of the contest, and that the people of vBulletin.org should make up most of the voting(2/3rds) and the final 1/3rd should be left to the contest organizers.

Well, i have no problems with setting up a contest usergroup for that, if you want it that way, but those will have to do the work then as well and organize the contests and such.

again just a suggestion, i and the rest of the staff will surely support you with things needed, but it should be a user contest itself, so you should come up with the rules and such

If you make a usergroup for that Xenon, and get us at least on a track to ge these set-up I would be glad to be part of this usergroup.

Some front page poll help would also help

[Xenon]

such things can be set up, once that you have decided on who should be in that group, and all terms and such.

if you want to clarify a few things or have more suggestions and need an admin, contact Danny, as he'll be responsible for such things with his Customer team

I just post my opinions here

[Ntfu2]

I see, what forum would the group hold the contest in? Would they just use the Forum Commenting section, or maybe a whole new forum :shock:

[Xenon]

I'd say that Mod of the Month Forum can be used for that contest as well.

We'll just move it out of announce ments and hold all contests in there in future

Okay, I have contacted Ntfu2 and Freestylez, both of them have some skills in Designing and I think would be a good addition to the team.

Let's make it me, Freestylez and Ntfu2 for the Board of the month.

Give us the details and I will set up the first one and make arrangements with the others.

as said, talk to Danny about such things, it is not my responsibility
