[Voxnovus] 60x60 submission engine

[Vox Novus List]

Hello gang,

Please vote for 60x60
http://www.ideablob.com/ideas/1758-60x60-online-submission-process
This contest sprint is ending this Friday.

I just wanted to write another email in regards to the voting sprint the
60x60 project is doing at ideablob.com . 60x60 has just slipped behind in
the running.  This is particularly disappointing since, only 10% of the
composers on this list have voted for the project.

The reason why I picked this website to run a fund raising campaign is
because it should be easy for the Vox Novus community to win with little
expense or cost.   This way I wouldn't have to charge membership fees,
contest fees, run donation campaigns, or spend valuable time fundraising
instead of arranging concerts and promoting composers' new work.  

I can not stress how helpful this submission engine will be to the cause of
the 60x60 project.  Accepting and logging submissions is one of the most
labor intensive parts of the 60x60 project.  Putting the online submission
engine in motion will reduce the labor by about 80%.  The submission engine
will also allow for an online judging process.  This is the second most
labor intensive part of the project.  This process will reduce the labor of
that process almost 95%!  

Lastly, but not least we need to raise money for our server who has been
graciously allowing Vox Novus to use an extreme amount of bandwidth for our
use.  A couple of weeks ago they asked us to run a fund raising campaign to
help with their server upgrade.  If you vote and we win this contest; I will
not have to ask for money to pay the server.

So if you are one of the 90% who haven't voted yet. PLEASE DO.

If you are one of the 10% who have, THANK YOU!  I can not tell you how much
I appreciate your support.  This week has been a trying experience on many
different levels and your efforts have helped brighten my mood.

Please vote for 60x60
