Re: [WSG] WSG design competition voting time
Now I see how few entries came in I'm thinking I should have somehow found the time to enter ... I suppose it would be unbelievably bad form to ask for a time extension would it? (he says in tiny mouse-like voice) ... Congrats to those who did take make effort to enter. Peter On 17/05/2004, at 4:10 PM, Aaron DC wrote: Hi all, The design competition closed last week.

Re: [WSG] WSG design competition voting time
IMHO ... I like Hugh Todd's the best http://webstandardsgroup.org/design/hugh-todd.jpg The Lindsay Evans Russ Weakley designs were OK but too derivative of the current look the yelloe in the Susan Gossman design was too bright One possible flaw in voting is that we cant tell what code been used in each site, in terms of efficiency, page weight (size in kb) and which is most compatible across browsers. -- Neerav Bhatt http://www.bhatt.id.au Web Development IT consultancy russ - maxdesign wrote: Hi all, The design competition closed last week. Those who submitted entries - thank you! Surprisingly, we only had four submissions, which is a bit of a disappointment, but for those that entered there is a much higher chance of winning the prize. :) The entries can be viewed and voted for here: http://webstandardsgroup.org/design/ You will need to log in to enter. You can click on a thumbnail to see a full size image. To vote, choose a favourite AND rate each of the designs. Ratings range from 2 (love it), 1 (like it), 0 (indifferent), -1 (dislike) and -2 (really dislike). Voting closes in 5 days time. The winner will be cut and built into the new WSG site. Start voting!

Thx for mentioning that Mordechai. I did exactly that expecting the User inferface default of left - right increase in vote ranking. off to change my vote ... -- Neerav Bhatt http://www.bhatt.id.au Web Development IT consultancy Mordechai Peller wrote: Aaron DC wrote: tongue location=cheek According to ZenGarden, CSS allows us to easily have all 5 designs at the click of a link.

They're all very good and it would be a true testament to Web Standards to allow alternate styles, even if only one is the main style. The voting page, however, has a major usability flaw. I almost voted backwards (-2 instead of 2) because ranking usually increase as you go further right. * The discussion list for http://webstandardsgroup.org/ See http://webstandardsgroup.org/mail/guidelines.cfm for some hints on posting to the list getting help * * The discussion list for http://webstandardsgroup.org/ See http://webstandardsgroup.org/mail/guidelines.cfm for some hints on posting to the list getting help *
Re: [WSG] WSG design competition voting time
One possible flaw in voting is that we cant tell what code been used in each site, in terms of efficiency, page weight (size in kb) and which is most compatible across browsers. It's a design. There shouldn't be any code behind it at all (for the moment). But, if code was used to produce the design, that is irrelevant as I would expect the code to be optimised for a production site.

RE: [WSG] WSG design competition voting time
Hi, I really don't think we want to discuss people's voting reasons on list. That can be done on http://discuss.webstandardsgroup.org/archives/12.htm if you really want to. They are flat graphic mock-ups so there is no code at this stage. The chosen design will be built correctly. When voting remember that it's a two step process. Pick the one you want in the first column and then rate each design (reading the column header to see which column is 2 or -2) in the others. I won't change it now as that'll make it even more confusing. Love it on the left!
