Btw, if this gets used, please give me a credit.
Edit: @Unstable, I have some ideas for you. Please tell me what you think!
- Maybe do something like the Gimkit feedback site, where people can upvote suggested category ideas. You could give a month or so and go from there.
- Create a contest to get a website designed for the awards. You can give criteria, and give 1 month to build a site. This can allow Gimkitters to give you some good choices (I bet that a lot of people on Gimkit’s platforms are good at that stuff), which you can choose from.
