EVERYONE, BE SURE TO GO BACK TO THE POLL VOTING PAGE
if it does not show..." You Have Already Voted in This Poll ", it did NOT count and it WILL NOT count
Iron out your issues now. Saying you voted and it "did not take" will NOT get you the points
fyi - it kept dropping Miami Hurricanes, moving everyone else up and leaving me without a 25th team. I put another team in at 25th and it took.
bottom line is get the vote in while we/holmey iron out any issues. but there is no excuse

Thats weird cause Miami was the team it would not let me put in either. Put in another one and it took it though.

Holmey,
Some feedback for you:
Why does it let me place more than 25 teams in there? I can keep going and put more than 25 teams in order.
It should cut off at 25 if possible.
The other thing is the alignment was off for me. It may be the old IE8 that we use here at work, but dropping the teams in, they did not line up with the boxes you provided.
If this is like this for everyone, I suggest just putting a small number or mark or something there and we can just line up the 25 teams that we want to vote for.
And I like Tfan's idea of maybe trying the boxes vertically next time and having the teams out to the right of that.
Just some ideas.
Thanks again though. I really like the look and feel of this!

On the upside if you are to beat him then there goes the extra points for beating a ranked team while unranked

I will look into the Miami issue, which will do the same for Miami-Ohio too.
I put the boxes up top because the screen is a fixed 900 pixels, and just had it line up to the fixed width of the page. I even put it to defined pixel heights and widths of the boxes so that the lines would work. If someone having the issue can do a screen print and let me see how the boxes do not line up, i can work on that.
If I stack it to the side, the 25 box height would far exceed monitor resolution than the horizontal ones. The image that I have for the box background, I may just have to alter that and it would work right.

i think the guys will be fine
as long as they know it wont PERFECTLY line up which is what they/we were trying to do at 1st
the format is still solid even if the icons are a bit off the numbers
(guys tihnk og the placeholders as estimates not exacts. just put the next team right after the team u just put up and it'll work out fine)

Looooooove the new look and this is from a dropdown4lyf guy (can we get that as an option though?

) but how hard is it to add a confirmation type thing?
I am asking as I have no clue what amazingness you do that but thats really the only thing lacking in my eyes.
Im still not even sure if I voted as I went back and the normal "you have already voted in this poll" didnt appear anyways but it kept my votes in the order when i refreshed??
Not sure if it took

You do get a confirmation once your pics have been accepted it takes you back to the old confirmation page and you will see preseason next to polls voted in and it will also tell you that you've already voted in the poll. I was running into the issue of it not being accepted when I was putting Miami in my list but I took them out and it accepted my 25 then lol. I don't know why but it did
