I see you found the new smileys :rotfl:

More T&A will need to be organized. Lucy Furr will object, perhaps I’ll make it a secret page she’s never think to look at – I’ll called it “PS3 Games” :X-P:

Victor, the award was for “Blogs about design or that have a great blog design.” Perhaps it made it into the finalists round due to the content being about design and not because of the blog design. Maybe it was because of both, I don’t know.

In any case, the awards are like a popularity contest, and reader votes usually seal the deal ;)

TheGiven, there’s an old saying “one man’s meat is another man’s poison”. I think in this case what you think is “bland” might be considered “minimalist” to someone else. Better luck next time though.

I too was very disapointed in the winner for best design blog.
But Probably only cos I was in the running and loss to a very bland attempt at design, guess thats what happens when it comes down to reader votes, the older the blog the more likely it is to win!

Best design blog that uses a freely available template for blogger, wtf, did anyone actually check to see if it had a unique design or a template?

Scary..
