Sit
and Entertain Me Award
|
This is the most general award and the most commonly given. Your site
compels me to look around for a while.
"Sit
and entertain me" is a quote from Khan in the Star Trek episode - Space
Seed. I would like to thank Charles R. Kaiser and Ruth Stout for the Khan pictures!

Killer Klips
Award
|
This award is for sites offering free clip art. The images have to be
original, well organized and easy to download. I don't like seeing the
same images over and over again. I have a major peeve about pop-up windows. I
have been to some clip art directories that have pop-up windows that lead to
yet more directories ad infinitum. Please let me leave your site without
having to close several windows. |
Cool Toon Award
|
This award is for web sites dedicated to cartoons. They can be fan
sites or sites devoted to original cartoons. Comic strip sites are included
in this category. Information sites must be up to date. Comic strips should
indicate when they are updated (weekly, daily, monthly, etc.). For comic
strips, the site and the strip are both evaluated. |
Rusty's Cool Dog Award
|
This award is for sites dedicated to dogs. The sites can be devoted
to specific breeds, rescue groups, training, dog activities, shows, shelters,
performing dogs, products, guide dogs or even individual dogs. Must have
some pictures of dogs. I will admit, it takes more effort not to win this award
than to win it. Good dog pictures will melt my heart and make me very generous
with my evaluation. |
Great Art Site Award
|
This award is for sites that showcase art. Paintings, sculpture, drawings or original music. Can be a showcase for other artists or your own work. |
A Better World Award
|
This award is for sites that promote awareness and action concerning social issues. This would include sites concerning justice, poverty, environmental concerns, religious tolerance and censorship. |
Award of E-commerce Excellence
|
I have been getting some applications from some good commercial sites, most of them small businesses. The existence of this award does not nullify my no MLM rule. If you have one of those "get rich, without any effort" sites please do not bother applying. It is a waste of my time. It is also a waste of your time because I am already rich. To qualify for this award your site must offer a legitimate product or service in exchange for money.
The site must be easy to use, offer a good selection of your particular
product and provide detailed descriptions. |
Salvador's
Award of Avian Excellence
|
This award is for bird-related sites. The site can be about pet birds, wild birds, bird rescue and even individual birds. Must include pictures of birds.
This one is also harder not to win than to win. I am a sucker for pictures of
pet bird antics. |
Fantastic
Fan Site
|
Honors web masters who show their passion for a singer, show, actor,
musician, artist, sports team, athlete or any person or thing through a well
designed website. |
Bookmark Award of Excellence
|
For sites that I like so much that I actually bookmark them. I usually
come across these sites in my web travels and it is generally given unsolicited.
If you apply for one of the above awards and I decide I like it enough
to bookmark it, then your site will be upgraded to this award. I am quite
picky about what I bookmark. I send not only the award but also comments
as to why the site won this award. The winners of this award have their
banner or logo displayed on the winner's page. This award is the most difficult
to win. |
