Hi,

Since Elated.com is such a regonizable web design web site, it would be most suitable if there were some type "elated" awards of exellent in design. Other webmasters could then submit there site to elated.com, hoping to win some type of award or regonition from the Elated team. You guys could create some type of special award (gif) image, in which the winning sites could post on their sites.

Hi Steven,

Interesting, Mr Bond...

Very sweet of you to say such lovely things about us.. It's not a bad idea at all, though I'm not sure how I feel about putting us up as a jury on other's work. It's not so bad in the Judge and Jury section of the forums where everyone else chips in too!

That is a great idea. Maybe a monthly award or something. This is something that you should try.

Whoa been a long time since I been here last... *waves* hi everyone. How about a monthly contest? graphics, logos, templates etc... Even if there are no prizes it will still be fun.

It would also increase traffic back to elated. Just thought i'd add another little reason.

Just a banner/button would do. But if they were offering more then i'd be in.

They could easily find sponsors but I was just saying even if they didn't want to, it would be still fun to compete.

Hi all,

No immediate developments. We have a couple of projects in the pipeline that we'd like to do first, as well as a bunch of client work on an. Also right now Matt's away getting married for a week or so, so bear with us!

Best,

Simon

Matt,

Observation from someone who has been with the original model for 27 years:

1) Love is blind.
2) Marriage is an institution.
3) You've just signed up to spend the rest of your life in an institution for the blind.

Congratulations!

Anne

Thanks guys! I'm back from the US a married man. We got married in Yosemite, which sure beats a stuffy registry office in England! The weather was lovely (apart from a thunderstorm the night before!) and Yosemite was beautiful as ever. What a wonderful place! I'm missing it already...

Cheers,
Matt

Glad to hear you had a good time.

Bet Yosemite is not as good as elated though is it?

Hi Dan,

We're still thinking about the best way to do this, in a way that's fair and doesn't end with people feeling bad if they don't get the award!

We'll let you know of any further developments.

Cheers,
Matt

Yes, It's still a possibility - we're contemplating an awards system based on a select panel of judges that vote, so that it's semi-democratic at least! *lol* Nothing definite yet, but the idea's plodding along in the background...

Cheers,
Matt
