btw i hope you guys don't mind that i took some of the reviews from kabob and put them in there.. don't worry about the colors.. they're not quite all uniform yet...

but let me know what you think and if you have any suggestions!

Just as a little warning, you might want to avert your gaze from the picture that's opposite the one of the mosque on the webpage sr. Jannah gave for the competition.  (But know that I've told you, isn't it almost a natural compulsion to look??) The other pictures are indeed pretty cool though.

I'm not good at writing reviews, but I'll give it a shot some day insha Allah.

As for the prize, hmm.  I don't know.  

I thought the winner was going to get a jannah.org email account.  Or can we choose something else?

I had thought the winner was going to get their "title" changed to Mumin, instead of geek or whatever. But that's not much of a prize for Arsalan cuz he passed the Mumin stage of posts long ago. Perhaps Regis should suggest something...???

According to the "Help" page, http://www.jannah.org/books is supposed to take you to the Shahadah bookstore.  Now that you have chosen that URL for the reviews page, what will point to the Shahadah bookstore?

How about changing the reviews page to /reviews?

Either that or change the shahadah bookstore to /shahadah

/shahadabooks is too long I think.

reviews hmm
good idea but all the code would have to be changed..and there's a directory under books called reviews that stores them messy...

Change the forum link to /bookstore. I don't think anyone actually uses these shortcuts ?
