The lazy dummy's guide on voting:​

Let's say you're having trouble reminding yourself to vote everyday. Fear not! Follow the following steps and you should be fine.


Step 1: Create an html file that allows you to view all three voting sites at once.​


If you know how to create html files yourself, here's the code:
HTML: 
<html>
  <head>
	<title>Voting Websites</title>
  </head>

  <body>
	  <object data=http://www.minecraftforum.net/servers/419-escaperestart/vote width="33%" height="100%">
		<embed src=http://www.minecraftforum.net/servers/419-escaperestart/vote width="33%" height="100%">
		</embed>
	  </object>

	  <object data=http://minecraftservers.org/vote/386636 width="34%" height="100%">
		<embed src=http://minecraftservers.org/vote/386636 width="34%" height="100%">
		</embed>
	  </object>

	  <object data=http://www.planetminecraft.com/server/escaperestart/vote/ width="33%" height="100%">

  </body>
</html>

If you don't - look up on a guide on the internet. Google "How to create html file" with your operating system. For Windows, open the notepad program and paste the file in, and save the file as an html file. Once you've got the html file saved, when you open it using a browser, you should see something similar to the screenshot above.



Step 2: Making the html file appear whenever you start up your computer.​

For Windows, you can do this by creating a shortcut of the file and putting it in the startup directory. Normally this is located at [BCOLOR=#e0e0e0]C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu\Programs\StartUp[/BCOLOR]
On Macs I think this is done through startup items, but go figure that out yourself.


Have fun voting!

I posted server side suggeestion for voting convenience - a reminder, that would display voting links on green/red depending, if you voted on these sites.

Is it possible to make size of these pictures depending on monitor resolution, so it could cover whole width of browser all time for all monitors?

I saved it in Minecraft folder, so it wouldn't litter my desktop, and added it as bookmark to my small collection of Minecraft bookmarks.
