Artzee.net and Lampwork Top 100 are traffic exchange systems that categorize websites. When artists refer visitors to their websites, they in turn usually visit other member-artists' websites.

Member websites are ranked by the number of votes that are registered from their specific link. The number of votes that a website receives determines their place on the list. It is a good way for websites to get "hits" and populate themselves in the various browsers, etc. They refresh their listings in order to allow newer websites to have a chance to climb in the rankings.

There, I think I have that explained a bit.....so here is the good news. Because having a website visited frequently is a good thing, I will reward you for helping me to become better know in cyberspace. On this page, you will see monthy contests where you can win either a piece of jewelry or a bead set - YOUR CHOICE!

You may vote one time in each 24 hour period, and at the first of the following month, I will put the names of all of my voters in a drawing - the more you vote, the more chances you have to win!

Here is how you vote:

1.	Click on the "Artzee" or "Lampwork Top 100" links shown below
2.	The link will take you to their respective websites. There you will see a sentence/link which will let you vote for Beadles when you click on it.
3.	Then send me an email gail@beadles.de in which you tell me that you voted and the current "count". It is that simple.

So...now that all of the details are cleared up - here is what you are playing for in the month of December: "Pimento". Here are the links...click away!
