Mod of the Month, August

[SoLoGHoST]

Sabre, you cracked me up with that post...lol.  Anyways, was just a thought I was throwing out there.  I don't need a ribbon, but surely wouldn't hurt any.  I just thought it would be a better motivator to keep us going and hopefully attract new MOD developers.  It's like anything else, when you see someone get recognized for their work (especially in a workplace environment), it makes you wanna be recognized also.  Same thing applies to MOD/Theme Developers for SMF.  In short, don't need a hug...lol

Cheers

lol
Yeah I agree with you mate
There's nothing wrong with your ribbon idea, or this idea as a whole.
Keep up the great work mate, and know that I and everybody else, always will appreciate it, as we always have
You guys n gals are also our unofficial teachers, so thanks for that aswell.

Best Regards

The mod was chosen by the team in recognition for the functionality and usefulness of this mod.

[SoLoGHoST]

Thanks SAFAD, I haven't released any mods this month yet, a bit busy at home, so much going on atm.  May not even get the chance to release any this month

Cheers

[Arantor]

Just as a clarification to anyone who is concerned: none of my mods are eligible - along with any released by the team - because that would be biased. The team votes on what the community produces.

[SoLoGHoST]

Well, gee, thanks, that makes me feel better Arantor.... NOT!  It's all good though

Cheers

[Afro]

[SoLoGHoST]

So I Will Forget Ya This Month
Maybe Next Will Be Harder Competition

[Sabre™]

When is the next "Mod of the Month" being decided?
On the 2nd of this month like this one was?
The thread I mean

[Arantor]

I believe it is being decided at the moment. I think it's fair to say you can expect an announcement in the next couple of days or so from the Customizer team.

[Sabre™]

Nice.
Good luck all

And thanks mate.

No need to wish me luck; team members are excluded on the basis of ensuring fairness, and it means instead of looking at what we're making, we're looking out to you, the fantastic community here to see what ingenious mods you'll come up with.

The modding community here is growing, IMO, and it's raising the bar on what mods are likely to be the Mod of the Month. But as ever, the competition is open each month, and we do look over every mod released that month.

Oh most definitely!
It's great going to the latest submissions section and comb through the code and ideas.
Although it is not a factor, I hope the competitive nature of some of the authors helps them to focus on quality of the mods, rather than quantity.
Threads like this help achieve that, and help the idea factory to keep on rolling. imo

Yeah I know
Keep up the great job all 

[Arantor]

Actually I have to say that on the whole, I think the quality of mods and coding is improving too; not everyone who submits mods are expert coders, and I love the fact that the whole program encourages 'have a go heroes' with modding.

Most of the mods I've seen from September were of a higher standard of coding across the board IMO than the average level in August, but that's because we're all growing, learning and improving.

I know my own mods have improved in style in that time, through looking at how others are doing things, and learning from each other.

Long live the mod community

[Sabre™]

Long live the mod community

x2
And those of us that further our knowledge because of their contributions.
Which would make that, all of us
Good luck all, see yous in the next thread --> "Mod of the Month, September"

[Arantor]

How do you think I started modding - I looked at existing ones to see what they did

Didn't fool me
