Nice site! It would be awesome to have a page for browsing all of the covers sorted by votes (more than just the best/worst 10).

Also, it would be great if there was a way to create an account and track what videos you had voted for - there's some good covers out there.

Great suggestion for the accounts, that's something we really do need to look into so we can give people a lot more feedback on they have voted for and how they're voted covers are doing!

I would hide the current votes of the paired videos before the user votes on them. (with maybe the option of seeing the scores but without being able to vote afterwards) I'd think it would influence one's vote.

Hey Timothee we have just updated it - check out youcover.me to see the change :)

Earlier quoted context omitted.

Too many words, not enough pictures. I have to read to browse the site currently, lots of actual parsing, whereas while looking for music I want to just have a head-space of "picture of lips" = "rolling stones" as I spin through the list. Please add image-clouds and a nice fast way to see whats moving in the lists and whats not.

Do you mean too many words in the actual Leaderboard list? SO essentially images moving up and down for the leaderboard list instead of text?

Yes I mean at the main web site, 'tis a huge word cloud, albeit un-sorted/categorized. If you for example could put pictures that indicate the artists (of the original song being covered) it might help.
