The image above left is a joke of mine. The original pages were by Luís Madureira and his classes at E.S.C.U. (a secondary school in Lisbon, Portugal). This page deals with the Golden Rectangle and the Golden Ratio (image above right, drawn by Jim Loy).

• If you wish to take part in the poll, please go to Poll 1 or Poll 2.

• After voting, you may be curious about the reason why first two rectangles polls (Poll 1 and Poll 2), produce different results. Then see the results of Poll 2. There are also some comments about Poll 1 at results of Poll 1.

• If you want to know more about the Golden Rectangle, please go to Golden Rectangle & Golden Ratio which provides an introduction to the subject. However, so that your answers may not be influenced by what mathematicians say about Golden Rectangle, I strongly suggest you take part in the polls before taking a look at what they say.

• See Brief History of the Most Pleasing Rectangle Web Poll.

• See results of Poll 3 (a poll which I discontinued).
