I will leave the vote open until next weekend so everyone has a chance to vote and all entrants have a fair chance so please take your time and try out the entries before making up your mind.

Entrants are NOT allowed to vote for themselves but you must still vote on another entry so pretend your name isnt on the list and vote for the one you like the best.

Good luck to everyone who took part cooll;

My vote goes to #MrAksel. That's something very unique and very useful that he has made.
Well done to him and all other participants :)

I hope people will still try my custom control even though I didn't post any screenshots. Don't judge it from my post, but please try it..

Popularity contest :)

Examples:
#DeveloperJacob made a nice image control still he doesn't have any votes.

#MrAksel only got 1 vote even though he probably has one of the best entries here (He only got 2 downloads meaning people haven't looked at his entry).
^ Remember that #CodenStuff has downloaded everything so only 1 person has looked at his control

#comathi has 7 votes and only 3 downloads... explains a little considering i didn't vote for him.

#Skillful with only 2 votes has 12 downloads, meaning 12 people thought it looked good enough to download.

I don't have the impression that the voters really test the controls, they just look at the images :P

As #RunarM and #MrAksel have both said, I think some members haven't taken the time to actually test the controls, and have instead relied on the images to submit their vote.

I wouldn't say it's a popularity contest. It looks more like: whoever can provide the best screenshot wins :lol:

To everyone, if you don't feel like testing every single control, at least test the one you're voting for ;)

Why not just install .net 4?. People should be trying them because you cant tell if something is good just by a screen shot..it may look fantastic but work rubbish.

Everyone try the controls before voting or I kill comathi ...his life is in your hands :lol:
