Hi Ben, just to let you know the website that I wanted to be submitted was AidahRauf.com. In my message to you, I said more information at 'www.perius.co.uk/portfolio.html

So i am confused, what is exactly up for nomination?

edit: forget it, its already been a day,

[traxor]

How very exciting

[MacDesign]

Voted! Was a tough choice as they are all good.

[wizely]

I'm going through a dark phase so Traxor got my vote.

[Sono Juventino]

Traxor by a mile. I didn't like any of the others.

Espescially Boyles. I don't like it at all!

[traxor]

I don't want to look until the closing date! But I can't help it, I'm properly excited.

Thank you for your votes so far it's really nice of you.

[lazytycoon]

[Guezala]

[Sam Lester]

Eskymo got my vote (I'm obsessed with light sites at the moment)

[ElanMan]

One clear winner for me this month.
Well done everyone

[notbanksy]

Nice work everyone. I have picked my favourite

[T_break]

HHHmmmmm its down to Traxor or Eskymo, tough one this.

[craftedpixelz]

Was torn between Eskymo's and Traxor's but in the end Traxor got my vote as his site is rather sexy. =)

Easy decision to make based on layout, typography and colour.

Yeah, to be honest... If I lose to Eskymo, it's hardly a bad loss, his website is really really good.

Haha, apologies. It's hard to know really, this forum doesn't have a M/F thing that MyBB does (which is what I'm used to). I didn't know you were a girl until last week.

[Sono Juventino]

The typography devides the very good sites from the average ones. You can make truly beautifull websites, but without good typography they wont stick out. Both Traxor and Eskymo looks to know what they are doing, but I perfer Traxor's in the end. I feel that Eskymo maybe was a little to safe with the colors this time, but I'm very fond of her eskymo site, so I know she can too.

Good work Eskymo and Traxor.

Edit: Not Dizi of course. Eskymo

[headcoat]

The Dutch one is awesome, not accessible etc but very surprised to see it has so few votes...very, very creative and stands out.

Not that I voted for it mind ;-) (or maybe I did?)

[shonk]

Some great looking sites there. I totally misclicked the vote button, so don't have a voice in this one, but agree with who is currently winning...

[Fen Boy]

I seem to be in the minority but i really liked the j5-payne site
nice job

[Peter000]

Hi

I am sure everyone is proud of their website entry - and so they should be. I have never seen anything like that Netherlands website before. Goodness knows how long it took to design, but it is definitely something very unique.

However, they all have their strong points and I have voted.

Nederlands – ner – points

That could translate as either a winning shout or a very slight miss.

All yours Ben.

[Dizi]

I have voted, it keeps getting harder and harder to pick the best one each month

[traxor]

Oop, it's slowly slipping away .

[jpinteractive]

Traxor u deserve it man the sites looks professional, clean i liked it

[Duck]

WOW! that was a tricky one, some brilliant designs. I voted for Traxor but it was a close call as I though Eskymo's site was awesome then in third of my choices was Raoul de Boer's site.

Great stuff!

[Sono Juventino]

Traxor is getting there. Now it's even between Eskymo and Traxor.

[Raoul de Boer]

traxor ftw
don't know what you all find so special about Eskymo's website. It looks cool but thats all if you ask me

greets

Eskymo's site looks good and adheres to standards / accessibility etc...it's a good one no doubt.

I loved your site Raoul - (though did find it akward to use with new tabs opening in the browser etc.)

It's my opinion many votes on WDF site of the month tend to be very 'safe' and 'conformist'...people are easily swayed by those they consider established opinion formers / leaders within the WDF community...not that said folk don't talk a lot of sense i should add.

A good (even very good) site always wins, but originality or stretching the boundaries appears to be low down on the list of criteria for most when voting.

Very brave of you all to put your sites up for votes, and don't forget if you don't win it doesn't mean your sites necessarily worse (or better for that matter).
