The newest version of 1.0.10 has been submitted to the IPB Marketplace. Just awaiting approval then will post here with the link.

Well here it is the new version of Power Contest. It's now been rewritten as a IP.Board App/Mod instead of a standalone utility. The last release didn't get accepted by them due to that fact. I will post the link to it in the marketplace here after it gets approved. You can take a look at it now though as it is live on Digitize Design by clicking the "Power Contest" tab in the navigation bar or by going here. IPB Marketplace Download Link

Made another round of modifications to Power Contest. A lot of people didn't like how you had to enter the information for the contest into the field each time to view the stats. I have modified it some so you just modify the index.php file directly then upload. I'm still waiting on it to get approved by IPB then I will place the download link.
