I think in the beginning, you may be right. The voting will probably go to the site that has the best name recognition. As time goes on though, it will actually start going to site's that don't have a name, but just a great design.

I firmly believe that having a Botm (Board of the Month) here at .org, benifit's all of our coder's. I think it is neat to go look at other site's that use the vbulletin software, but have added different hack's/mod's to their site's and to see how these hack's/mod's are being utilized. I personally don't believe that my site would be as great (my opinion) as it is, without .org and the coder's. I too, would love to see everyone that has a site that is built around vbulletin.com software, but upgraded with code's from within .org, share their work with everyone here at .org.

I sure hope the admin's/mod's continue on with this addition to .org. I for one am looking forward to seeing some very kick butt sites.

I would like to nominate Photo Sharing Forum because I think it is one of the best I have seen with a very nice look and feel. I also think that the entire site is very useful and interesting. It seems to be a fairly new site, but I think it has great potential. I've spent a few days searching for vBulletin sites, and this one stuck out to me.

Seconded..

I nominate www.youthwar.com [my forum]

It is a Christian Youth forum, and so far has being going really well. I really like the general casual, relaxed feel of it. There are quite a few mods/hacks on it to make it more interesting, but i love the rotating banners. If there is one thing anyone should like, it is the rotating banners :P (banner changes each time you reload the site). Still quite a lot of work i intend on doing on it, but its not looking to bad.
