ONE MORE WEEK TO CAST YOUR VOTE!

You may vote for the films of the Bitfilm competition until April 11, 2013, 12am CET here: http://www.bitfilm.com/festival

There are two ways to vote: if you are a registered member of the Bitfilm Network, you may give one to five stars to a film by clicking on one of the star
symbols below it.

Everybody may vote by donating any amount of Bitcoins (as little as 0.00000001 BTC) to the film's individual Bitcoin address. which you find below the stars.

These two results will be combined by a formula only we know. So the best way to make the film of your choice win is to vote in both ways and make as many
people as possible do the same.

If you need Bitcoins for this, you may want to buy them at our partner Bitcoin.de: http://www.bitcoin.de
