Before I write a single line of code I decided to sketch a rough layout of how I would want the map vote alternative I want to code to look like.
Here is a sketch drawing NOT A SCREENSHOT! Just a sketch

When players vote for a map it could show their talk texture as it is in game along with a screenshot of the map they are voting for and of coarse the map name and game type but also could display the icons of the mods they are voting for as you may see with the Nali Weapons 3 logo and EXU Weapons logo.
Just a sketch I realize the voter display is ridiculously oversized I might make it more minimalistic and clickable or mouse over where a small popup bubble would show larger details about the maps and mods they are voting for.
I have a lot more sketches to do but kind of a look at what I was doing. I wish to ultimately create a replacement for map vote and have it be as functional and flexible as it will be visually stunning.
