Or there are many people like me who won’t vote at all because the process is 
so difficult and time-consuming. :-(

A good UI is what we need here. Maybe someone can write a simple app that does 
the following:

    * download the logos from the Haskell web server

    * present the user pairs of logos and let him decide which one of the two
    presented logos he likes better

    * shows a progress bar during voting

    * presents the voting result for easy entering into the webpage

Best wishes,
