2. Select "Vote For Your Favourite Projects" from top right of the screen.
3. Select the "Green Innovation Award"

Not really no as that would be asking us to collude in vote rigging. What you could do is post a link to all of the projects that are up for this award and let us decide which one, if any, we would wish to vote for. That way, if your friends project really is the best one, we might vote for it.

OK will do as you suggested  I hope no one will report me for doing what you recommended me to do

Ah, thats so yesterday man... New day new prizes, or I'm outta' here

Sure every environmental project is a win win for all human if we care for the environment

I'd do that:
1. Make a post about the project and what your friend is doing exactly, and why you think this is worth supporting in your opinion.
2. Add "And to those who think this project deserves support, they can even vote for it !"
Everybody needs a little push sometimes[^].
And I notice we are again discussing about how to ask and not be flamed ...

According to the magistrate at your latest hearing that is not an epidural

Would I be correct in saying that most Windows apps have no 64-bit version? I know this is true for Visual Studio, and it also seems to be the case for tools like editplus and irfanview.

I'd say you are correct.
In the case of the examples you give, there are no reason to switch to 64 bits.
I'd rather be phishing!

I did not say that; NOT ALL applications gain from being in 64bit.
Other than having access to more memory, there is no real gain in performance.
In the examples (irfanview, editplus, VS), there is no advantages to convert to 64 bits; they all are working on relatively small dataset.
We are working on an engineering software, we work with 3D models and large datasets; and in the last couple of years, our clients were working with large datasets and we had no choice of switching to 64bit (with a lot of pain,sweat and swear due to very old legacy code).
I'd rather be phishing!

oh, my bad. You're right. Looks like I read that article too quickly

That might be true for most users; but the 32bit nature of VS is causing problems for some large software projects. Mozilla's been bumping into memory limits with MS's 32bit linker for years. And while 64bit isn't a headline target for the VS team, a few years ago (vs2010 release???) when asked they blogged that they'd been making sure that each component they touched in development was made 64bit compatible when they were done along with whatever functional changes were responsible for it being updated in the first place. The intent was to get most of the way there organically so that wrapping up the remaining loose ends would be a reasonably sized task as part of a release as opposed to something that would consume all of their work for a few years.
Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, waging all things in the balance of reason?
Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful?
