um, no they dont. i meant the shadows behind the boxes. there are no shadows behind the helmets or the star. but w/e.

Firstly, the poll is a perfectly OK idea. As for the magnification, pure accident if I have on my part. Dunno how I would have but I see what you mean. its only a tiny increase in size anyway and it should make absolutely no difference to the poll.

As for my vote, I accidentally voted for A not B. One vote needs to be transferred from a to b, although with the way it looks at the moment it shouldn't even be an issue.

Yes, they are all English translation, I don't ask you to put them in Russian.

What I am saying the proper name is "Ternopol", "Ternopil" is Ukrainian transliteration.

I know that because I grew up in that city.

Jeez, is it so difficult to change??? And after that you are asking why people are so negatively towards you? Why don't you stop being negative yourself???

(Ukrainian: Тернопіль
Polish: Tarnopol

Let's be accurate. Use the correct names, this is not something that needs to be discussed.

err... ok... didn't think it was really an issue.

Anyway Qwert, sort out the damned borders you've got your vote now havn't you.

Ok if you do that, then you must be consistant,

Most of your city names are Russian-English translation. Just Ternopil is Ukrainian-English translation.

If you want to make All Ukrainian-English, you need to change lots of names:

Russian Ukrainian
----------------------
Lvov Lviv
Odessa Odesa
Kiev Kyiv

Either way will work.

Actually Guiscard if the vote is over now Qwert doesnt have to change anything and the majority have then voted for the borders to remain how they are

Guiscard do you think that these vote can be more days, not half day.
Just relax, if i waith 3 month then you can waith 6-7 days OK
Hulmey i want to be fair too everybody, and put poll vote for several days not half day

Guiscard · Post by **Guiscard** » Thu Mar 29, 2007 3:06 pm

OK chill your bean a second lad... When I posted it was on about 6 - 20 - 11.

Either way, Andy is still not gonna forge it in the current state so it really is a bit of a moot issue.

I still think the vote shows they should be done. 30 people want a definite change and 30 people don't care then we have two situations:

a) Make the change. 60 people are happy.

b) Don't make the change. 30 people are just the same as they were before, 30 are really disappointed.
