Winners of the Nettuts+/Screenr Competition Announced

Winners of the Nettuts/Screenr “Fame and Fortune” Competition Announced

The results are in. After a week of community voting, we’ve selected the best five submissions to the Nettuts+/Screenr competition. Everyone did a fantastic job, but there can only be five winners! Let’s see who they are.

How Were the Winners Selected?

Each day last week, the community was able to vote on their favorite video tutorial of the day. At the end of the week, I compiled these votes and determined the five most popular. At this point, I worked with a few members of the Envato staff to decide upon the order.

    eh, I have seen sooo many jQuery slideshows. I don’t think that’s so special. #4 – How to Turn a Boring Search Input into a Snazzy Search Suggest with jQuery – should have won in my opinion, but congrats to all winners!
