Oh and Dan did the other design from which Chris's is a derivative.. even if you did have a point, he probably wouldn't mind either.

But I do agree in the possibility of coding both and letting users decide. However it may be a waste of resources, if you've paid for it why not offer it as a free download? People always love things that are free (have to be a member first).

All 5 designs were paid for, however, the first 3 were not strong contenders.
Hopefully we'll have enough free products/services to give away to members not to have to give away our own original design.
Thank you for casting your vote!

Maybe some day I'll show them as antiques. ![Devil Grin](images/smilies/devilgrin.gif) It is not that they were that bad. Some actually had some good elements about them. However, the designs were not something original that I haven't seen before. I really wanted something that was trendy, functional and a bit out of the box. But most importantly, something that can serve for an extended period of time without getting old. I have learned through previous experience that good expensive design is the only way to get the investment back in the long term.

Exactly the right spirit, t0m! That baby has his DNA in it, no matter how you look at it.
Having said that, the poll is far from being closed.
