Hey GitHub users 👋, I needed to collect votes in a GitHub issue recently, so I created this free tool. How it works: Embed the markdown in your GH issue, people click the image, vote, then get redirected back to the issue with the results showing the updated vote stats.

It would also be nice if the markdown would result in multiple images/links, and simply clicking the image would cast the vote. This would of course require some more checks to prevent bots etc. from casting votes.

@koenp great idea! It would work if the resulting page asked for confirmation with a POST request to prevent CSRF. I'm not sure I'll have time to add that feature.
