Member of the Month
Is there someone on DaniWeb who you think should be featured as the Member of the Month in a forthcoming DaniWeb Digest newsletter and added to our virtual hall of fame?
I am looking for worthy candidates for forthcoming newsletters, so why not put forward someone who deserves it? Just add a comment to this thread (or PM me if you prefer) with the name of the member and the reason why you think they should become a Member of the Month.
You can see all previous recipients here and read their member interviews while you are at it.

I would nominate ArkM due to his excellent help in the C and C++ boards (I don't know where else he is at).

Another site im on we used to do this!!
Every month there would be '3' members of the month and they had special CUSTOM TITLES for that month.. (But it sadly faded away)
I got MEMBER OF THE MONTH one month :)
Its not a bad idea really :)
The staff votes on the mod base from selected names and whoever gets the most votes gets picked for that month....

At first I thought so too; but I think it's Nichito we're thinking of.

I've coded the ability for administrators (myself and Davey) to be able to assign individual members as Featured Poster, Featured Blogger, Featured Writer, Featured Coder, Featured Chatter, etc. based on the different things that DaniWeb offers. Once you win the award, you carry around your badge and you also get listed on our awards page.
However, I'm leaving it up to you, the community, to decide who wins and how they should win. Currently, Davey selects one member each month, and that member gets interviewed in our monthly community newsletter. I'm up for other suggestions .... maybe people can win Featured Coder for writing code that does something creative ... ideas?
