Today we have received the last votes and opinions on the three skins which were selected for the final round of the competition. It was a spectacular race because nobody really knew which skin would take over. Every single point from the jury was very significant. However, now it is time to take a deep breath because here are the the winners and their prizes:

• The Grand Prix goes to Stamatis 'Stam' Kritikos and his SymiSun* 03. It means that this skin will become the new default skin in Cotonti Siena 0.7.
• The 1st prize and $170 goes to MeDBejoHok for his outstanding Veronese.
• The 2nd prize and $100 is deserved by Dmitri Beliavski a.k.a. Kort for his high quality entry Cryo.
• The rest 3 guys who took part in the 1st round will get $20 each for their effort and wish to help our community and CMS to develop.

The first round of Skin Competition is now over and it has clearly outlined 2 things:

• We have 3 obvious leaders.
• Web polls are not perfect for such contests.

So we decided to combine the Jury vote with Community vote and go for Round 2.

Everyone in our community has waited for it for quite long and eventually Cotonti Skin Competition Web Vote has been launched! There are 6 skins to choose from. Not so much, but we choose quality over quantity. You can evaluate the skins by visiting live demos and then vote for one you like most.

Go to The Web Vote

The winner of the web vote will get $170 and the title of "Cotonti Skin Competition '09 Winner". The second place is granted $100 and we will give $70 for the third place.

In the meanwhile 10 members of our community and Team will give their marks to these skins, considering layout, code quality and infrastructure. And the winner of the Jury Prize becomes a new standard skin since Cotonti 0.7.0.
