Esykmo's website is this months winner for me, without a doubt, it's really really good. It has very little competition. Christophers website is very good, however I felt that it uses flash when it doesn't need to at all. That's just my opinion though , it was close.

[Shine Internet]

Eskymo for me too, do like the background image, very stylish.

[ElanMan]

Christopher Darling for me which, just for the record, doesn't use flash at all.
It degrades without javascript enabled too and all in all looks very good (imo).
Well done the four of you!

You stole my words
Voted for him also!

[lost.libertine]

Eskymo does 'it' for me!

[Scott S]

I voted for Eskymo, But Christopher Darling's one was a very VERY close second.

Congrats to all

[ChristopherDarling]

Oooh! Thank you for all your votes guys.

As someone said before, my site doesn't use Flash. It's all xHTML, CSS, and JavaScipt. It will still work without JavaScript enabled, just without all the animations.. which helps it being Search Engine friendly.


Time for me to vote.. (not for myself!) I've gone for Chink's website

[Boyles Web Design]

Wow, Im surprised only 2 people have voted for chink.

[Eskymo]

I wondered why my sites was getting a load of hits this w/e - now I know! Thanks for the votes.
I voted for the competition...

[T_break]

I have not seen an Eskymo site I didnt like, but my vote has gone to Christopher Darling as Technically its very impressive, it proves that you dont need flash to be able to create a visually interesting website.

[Dizi]

ohhh this one seems to be another nail biting one


My vote was cast a while ago, although it was a tough choice, once again a nice selection of sites

[tigerlabs]

Eskymo has always been a winner for me.

[terydinho]

It seems pointless to vote now in this landslide - but Eskymo for me too. Well done.

Could not agree more, I had to keep right clicking on it looking for the Flash settings, a nice effect to pull of in JS, well done to you, while all four (and it is a shame there isn't more) worked hard on their projects Christopher I am guessing must of had to work harder to incorporate that feel so you got my vote!

[traxor]

I was tempted to edit my previous post, but that's just weak. Okay I didn't look at the code and realise that it was javascript, but I'm still sticking to my guns .

Sorry for not realising . It is a nice website.

[kree8or]

Chink for me, I nearly voted for christophers website, but there were a few loose ends that neaded tidying up (me being Uber critical, it really is a excellent website, technacily supurb) but Chink's web site felt a bit more "finished". I liked love/hate a lot as well, and it really was a tough call between the them three. I thought that the first site was good too, but it seemed a bit "soulless" (if thats the right word) and could do with a designers eye. I can empathise with that as my designs tend to lack that "edge" which is why I've now hooked up with a graphic designer who can "make sites look pretty, but not make them work". On the whole, congratulations to all four entrants, I'm mightly impressed!

[Lee Boyce]

Nice work Eskymo!!!

[Eskymo]

thanks!

[traxor]

The voting closes tomorrow and I think it should be punctual, so a moderator should close the thread at midnight tonight, otherwise the voting is surely nullified, and the competition is void?

[Badmotherz]

Simple and clean wins the day for me, so Eskymo it is.

[Guezala]

Voted. Why Helen is yours not on there? Tut!
