Oh, I hate those gleam widgets. They are very annoying and awkward but indeed have a very fancy look.
Their drawback is that a user cannont see which other users entered a specific giveaway, only the number of total entries is visible. The only real advantage I see for this kind of giveaways, apart from being more confortable to click and share or enter, is the number of entries, for instance a normal giveaway of 30 participants could have thousands of entries so apparently it looks that a lot of entries were submitted but the number of effective participants is smaller. :exclamation:
I`m a fan of classical giveaways, where everything is visible to others but if needed I enter gleam or other type of widget giveaway (r-fuel).
As I`m not very keen on that, I suppose that the winners selections is easier but hidden so all in all I don`t like them at all.
