Funny you should mention that. I'm busy downloading those thumbnails as we speak.

If you click on the number of votes you should see a list of who voted, and delete your vote there. lmk

Is this new voat or old voat? I can't tell anymore.

Just click on the vote number and you can undo it. I had to learn that quickly because I've got big fingers that click wrong buttons all the time.

Ok guys. The site actually works. I didn't think I'd get this far but it's actually coming together. Next I need to add subverses, all/new, profiles, inbox, mod and admin powers, anti-spam and ban procedures. I feel like I am forgetting something. It sounds like a lot but I believe I have the hard part out of the way. It will just take time. As I take the project more seriously I have to consider not ripping off the voat name and coming up with something else (but using the same layout). Using it opens the site up to a bigger potential of being ddos'd to death early on, but people know and love voat so it's a double edged sword. Let me know what you think or if you have any good replacement names. I should have a preview test server online in the next week or two I believe.
