    I think the warning "Be advised that this is a public poll: other users can see the choice(s) you selected." should be more visible. Some recent "public" polls on DP have "indecent" questions and many of those who reply may not be even aware their name is going to be attached to their choice.

    Well i don't think it really matters as users get to choose weather they vote on a poll or not.

    I too think the same. If you are don't want others to connect your opinion with you, then you should be careful.

    Isn't really necessary as people state their opinions and choices on the threads w/ their justification for their specific choice.

    When viewing a poll, poll should state the question. I look at that poll above and have no idea what the question is.

    What do I think? None of the above. I think we are having a beautiful spring day. <wink><wink>

    I think the warning text is fine the way it is - it's the same size as the option text, which we're presumably assuming everyone can read perfectly well. Would be change for change sake.

    Does that text flash too, just so no-one misses it?
