Wow- some really good sites this month. Excellent work everyone.

I whittled my favourites down to 3 - Helen, Acuity and Wizely, but in the end Wizely did it for me. Excellent sites all round though.

great sites all...

f*** me wizeley your not just the best copywriter, also the best designer!!!

the attention to detail and typography is supreme.

if one criticism all that stuff about birds winging their way to use via rss is for me too corny and isn't uo to the standard of your writing or design - there's no need for it here if you get what i mean ;-)

Wow thanks Headcoat, but tsk on the naughty word! You're right about the 'winging' text - I only just got the site finished in time to enter without having time to put it up for review - it was one of the last things I put in place.
And thanks to the others who've voted so far - those sealed envelopes are on the way to you!
Great sites again this month and shaping up to be another nail biter. More exciting than the US election or the NZ election (if anyone even knew that was going on?!!!).

Good luck everyone! :good:

Wizely website is fine, has plenty of copy for me, maybe you need to refresh cos I think he previewed something a while back on that domain and it may be stuck in your cache.

I voted Acuity, I love the way everything pops off the page. All looks pretty fresh.

Also Wizely your website is offline, it just redirects to a suspended page notice which in turn is a 404.
