More Golden Spiders Fun

Golden Spider bashing might appear to be a national pastime, but I guess it’s all down to the size of the target!

This year they’ve made a small effort to validate their weird choices by letting us, the public, vote on two of the categories. Of course, as Niall found out, the developers who did their site for them aren’t exactly the most competent, as they didn’t setup the forms to validate properly.

And what level of esteem should you hold web awards that include Template Monster templates?

There’s threads on the “wonderful” awards on both CI and IWF. If you want some of the background then read over the thread from last year as well!

  1. I hold them in very high esteem. I think they are extremely good judges of what is the best out there. They really are a very nice bunch of people and should not be slagged off so much.

  2. Somebody needs to do the maths.
