How about a competition using BlueVoda????

Re: How about a competition using BlueVoda????

And what determines the best page? Time loading is only one of hundreds of factors. I still think this would be something that can hurt too many people's feelings.

But if some of you want to do it for fun, go at it. I have too much to do trying to keep up with all the websites I'm working on to make pages like that.

Re: How about a competition using BlueVoda????

maybe it doesn't have to be a competition, maybe it is just people posting pages they have made in that manner, using only BV.
That way we could all learn more ways to use the tools provided for us, and nobody gets squashed..

Re: How about a competition using BlueVoda????

That I could agree with wholeheartedly Liz - and while I might not have time to make these pages, I would like seeing them for ideas :) Just don't want anyone's feelings to be hurt.

Re: How about a competition using BlueVoda????

Yep I agree completely with you Beth. I know I keep finding new things that people have done that I had no idea were possible, and I like that, so I would definately be interested in seeing this kind of thing..

I have a spare bluevoda website which has not been used yet.

If people like the idea, I would be happy to host and publish any and all such pages.

Re: How about a competition using BlueVoda????

Nice one David! Well done. That would be great. Not sure what’s the best way for entrants to get there page’s on the viewing site without making a lot of work for one of us. Maybe a form of some sort where the entrant can just send the page. Should be ok as there will be no images to worry about.

When I say competition, I should have said something more like showcase. That is decided on by a vote from Vodahost viewers, with some a type of 1 vote.. voting system.
(OK Then! A competition) lol
Maybe marks out of 10 for 3 areas of skill. Maybe? Design/tec & somthing else. Maybe even a simple yes or no vote. Open for ideas on this. But with no facility for comments.

The idea for this is to give newbie’s (& oldies) a chance to see what can be done with BV & a place to where members of the forum can say go to this link & have a look for some ideas & examples. We could start with just BV only pages. And then move onto
????? ideas on how to make a photo album & so on.
Basically just different ways & ideas of creating different things to help others, with a working model.

Lazaovich! Thanks for the positive input. I was just thinking of a little more interaction on the forum for the good of all.
Basically just different ways & ideas of creating different things to help others.

Hi Beth, i hope we wont create any controversy, or hurt anyone’s feelings. But more to give some guidance to new members on what can be achieved.
When I see some of the sites that are up for revue on the forum, it would be nice to be able to point them to some ware for ideas & guidance instead of the feeling that I shoudnt say its not that good. (Lol) But to achieve this, there would have to be some sort input from members to get some pages out there as a guide, that others agree on.
The other reason is that I find it strange? is that a forum that has nearly 29000 members? & only has a very few are using the facility. (Strange) Maybe some extra incentives may attract more members to use it & interact to help others. This can only encourage better use of BV.

As David said if there is any feed back I will be more than happy to get started with a list of ideas, (Just to begin with)..

Cheers

Okay Chris... somebody has too much time on their hands! LOL
Actually, I think it is a good idea with the added suggestions of Beth, Liz and David. It would be a great resource of ideas....

Hi Dori, (to much time on my hands) LOL. I have all the time in the world. Or is this too much. I used to say this to my customers, “But I was on a day rate at the time”
Right! it’s a beautiful day with blue sky’s in London & the garden has been begging for some attention. So I am off for a dirty afternoon.

Cheers.

Re: How about a competition using BlueVoda????

Why wouldn't there be any images? Are you saying images can't be used?

Re: How about a competition using BlueVoda????

very impressed with your samples - makes me want to try some things out - it would be nice to see what can be done - we sometimes tend to get stuck in a mind set until someone shakes our box.

Re: How about a competition using BlueVoda????

I might participate, but I really don't see the need for David to set up a site ... I would post my page on my own site ....

I would like to see ***** or Bethers have a thread stickied where members can participate as they wish ... an ongoing type of thing, not necessarily a competition. Perhaps I create a page today, and maybe next week I want to create another page to show people. I mean this is what it really is all about, is it not??

So an ongoing sticky thread, and each member wanting to participate, can make their own page, on their own site, and this also gives each member participating, or viewing a look at their own site, for a) help, b) ideas c) link sharing opportunitys d) and more ....

So that is how I would like to see it ... an oportunity to showcase, 1) your own site and 2) any number of pages that you would like to create

I suppose there could be subcategories of this as well ... perhaps a well laid out image page, perhaps a well laid out page using shapes alone, perhaps a well laid out text only page, perhaps a combo page, and perhaps a dream page ... etc. etc.

Just my two cents ....

Re: How about a competition using BlueVoda????

A fine idea, I say.

I really like the idea of a showcase, as opposed to a competition, limited to BV tools only. It would serve as a way for people considering BV to see what is possible.

And it certainly would be easy to do a page using our own url and post it, so noone has to maintain a special site, good thinking LE

I am thinking not a total site showcase, tho, just BV-tool-made pages, cause don't we already have a showcase site for whole sites? Otherwise it could end up being a duplication, and we all know how much we don't like that...LOL

okay that's my 3 cents worth for the moment..
