This is an awesome project you have going on! What a cool way to showcase some really great designs. I don’t think I can even pick a winner out of some of these match-ups.

I agree with the last comment, it’s hard to choose between some of them.
They’re all very lovely. :]

This is such a great idea!
I too am struggling with some of the votes, felt very guilty about voting against some wonderful sites!
5 web pixy Mar 31, 2008 at 7:31 am
There are some really good blog designs! It’s so hard for me to choose for which one to vote but I will pick one:)

This is certainly where I leave the running. Paul’s ‘Reflections’ design is 10 times more detailed than mine, and his coding skills a great deal better too.
Thanks again, Steven, for putting me up in the first place.

This is a great post. Nice to see so many great blog designs. I don’t know about some of the pairings. It is difficult to put sites like a list apart against anyone. I feel bad for Loon Design to have to go up against the king. Great blog though Loon.
8 Biodun Mar 31, 2008 at 1:15 pm
wow… lovely designs! voted for one despite all being very great.
Nice post.
9 Tony Chester Mar 31, 2008 at 4:42 pm
I just have to say that Viget’s blog was awesome & I too felt bad for Loon.

One day i will leave the confines of blogger and find my blog’s true potential

Thanks for this…some of these are really cool.

Thanks to everyone who is voting and commenting. You guys are all making this a successful event!
David,
You’re only down 60 to 55 at this point, still with a few hours to go. You never know what will happen.
Bob,
The pairings don’t really mean much, especially after the first round. However they fall is how they meet up. So don’t read too much into which blogs are facing each other.

Hi there!
Very nice designs!
Can I ask you what you think about mine? http://www.info-graphistes.com/
