People’s Choice Voting Begins Today
April 6, 2004
Be here at Noon e.s.t. today for the start of public voting for the People’s Choice Award for Pixelpalooza 2004. We invite you to visit each of the three category pages (OS X, CandyBar and Classic) and rate your preference for each entry. People’s Choice voting runs from today until Noon e.s.t. April 13th and the winners will be announced along side of the Grand Prize and Runner up winners selected by this year’s judges on April 21st.
We’ve made a change in procedure from previous contests for this year’s People’s Choice voting. Last year ballot stuffing was a serious problem and as such, we’ve decided not to show which entry is in the lead. We’re sorry if this is disappointing, but you can blame all those people out there who thought voting multiple times for a single entry was okay. Artists from around the world have put their hearts and souls into their creations, and if you value their efforts, please treat the contest with respect and vote only once in each of the three categories. Now get voting!
