If you've not been welcomed here yet, please let me give you a great big CUTE welcome to our wonderful community! The next day's free design is decided by the number of votes it got the previous day, then all designs go back to 0 and start over, votes for the non-winners are not cumulative. Exactly what time of day (or night) this happens I can't really say, and would probably depend on where in the world you are, what time zone. It seems to be in the morning in the USA Eastern time, but I'm not sure, since I have a membership & don't pay that much attention. I know some of the Cuties who collect the free designs more frequently are going to be able to help you out on when the design changes. Hope this answers your question, hugs, Marji
Thank you...that seems to make sense to me. Yes, I've had an overwhelming welcome and feel right at home here. I hope one day that instead of mundane questions I'll be able to contribute!! Blessings.
