Here's a free suggestion. You don't even have to give me a prize. You
know those random words which are underlined on that page, and when you
mouse over them, you get the random advertisement on a completely
unrelated subject, which also emits a *sound* on my computer? Get rid of
them completely. They are beyond annoying. I get that you need to make
money with this site, but those obnoxious ads are the exact opposite
wrong way to do it.

Also, while I wouldn't have expressed it quite as crassly as Robert, I
have to agree on his evaluation of the site's look. I have a logon on
your site and have been to it many times. I just figured you liked it
like that. But in truth, it needs a serious and complete makeover. But
like Robert, I have no end of things to take care of, quite outside of
redisigning phpclasses.net. I'd suggest you scrap the contest and go
find a good free CSS template. But that's just me.

And just for the record, I'm really not ragging on you. PHPClasses.net
is the only site of its kind I know of. There is an endless variety of
code for almost anything you could want to do in PHP. That's why I
maintain a login there.
