I was looking at the Contests tab and we have the Flashing message: Vote Now or Forever Hold Your Peas I found this gem and was thinking about adding something like that to the main Contests page (and maybe even the home page as well). Thoughts? Concerns? Beer? I've also added to extra buttons in the Forum area. Alert and Highlight. They make nice visual additions to an otherwise text post.

The "Peas" part falls out of the box. Is it possible to change the size of either the counter or the description?

I bet it's very possible! Mind providing a screen shot and let me know what resolution and browser you have?  I'm using Chrome and a big monitor (also checked it on a smaller one).

looks good to me but the time is off by an hour, it's George Bush's fault.

Looks like it's fine to me. Contest ends in 24 minutes and countdown indicates the same.

Sorry, Mash. I didn't take a screen cap before five so I guess I'll have to wait until next time.  The time was ok, though, it was just the size of the font that was making the last word jump out of the box onto the line below. I have a 1600x1200 screen with FF's latest release.

That's cool... here's a sample one that ends tomorrow night at 6 PM EST. How does that one look to you?

I made the box 300 pixels wide (it was 240). See attached. Does it look like that now?
