Hi.

I have been working on a gaming review web site and I would like to give my visitors the option of voting for a game that they like. I am not sure if I will be needing some sort of script or if it can be done simply enough in HTML. If you have any suggestions please let me know.

Thnx.

Are you aware of any free or open source PHP scripts available for this purpose. Or maybe agood place to start looking for free PHP scripts? It would be nice to use a database to allow the users to login and leave feedback about games as well as the voting.

I don't expect my site will be huge but I am hoping for a large turnout.

A members area would be nice too.

Thanks for the info I'll see what goodies I can find at the sites you mentioned in the mean time. I'm beginning to think this website is going to take me forever to build. lol

Hey just a thought. Here is another quote I thought might go good with your others in your signature.

In the beginning the Universe was created. This has made a lot of people very angry and been widely regarded as a bad move.
