Re: Become a Curator on the Scratch Homepage

i would like to be a cuartor because, i want to put people's projects that have never been on front paged and make them happy. Another reason why is i want to show people projects that are funny, creative, cool and make sure scratchers know what scratch is really for.  smile

Re: Become a Curator on the Scratch Homepage

I would like to be a curator because I want to promote some really good projects that people should watch. I would also like to be a curator because maybe beginners can what to expect from scratch.

While serving as curator, the Scratcher’s most recent Favorites will be featured in a row on the Scratch Homepage.

It sounds like SCRATCH will just automatically pick the three recent projects favored by the curator. But if I were curator, I would like some say in which three of my favorites appear on the home page. Would that be possible?

I suspect, since it is going to pick your most recent three favorites, that you could force it to pick the ones you want by unfavoriting and then refavoriting projects to manipulate the dates...kind of awkward maybe, but I bet it would work.

Thats what I heard your sopposed to do when I was reading random posts on Lightnin*'s wall on one of his projects

Re: Become a Curator on the Scratch Homepage

I like good Animations, Games, and Interactive books or stories. I would also like to choose people like me that not many people have seen before. Well, I guess I have been front paged twice, so I'm not really a good example, but people whose projects don't get seen all that often should get a chance! I would love to be a curator.

SCRATCH TEAM: Please know that this is a serious application, not one of the thousand cockamamie "I wanna be a curator" posts.

I would like to be a curator. As a curator I would select projects that are just generally well done, but mostly favoring towards projects that use a lot of variables and operators, because those tend to be more advanced, along with projects that create music. I enjoy watching the Example projects because I think that those are an example of the type of projects that should be curated.  I also would pick a lot of projects that use Scratch PicoBoards and WeDo's. Those are rarely seen on Scratch. I know that picking projects by New Scratchers is a good idea in heart, but lets face it, most new scratchers are just that- new, lacking more depth. However, I have seen 3D renderings loaded in Scratch by New Scratchers. Back to the curating, I also would pick projects made in Blender or other things like that. Well, I hope I will be a serious canidate in curator selection.

Re: Become a Curator on the Scratch Homepage

I am programdesigner2 and I would like to become a curator. The projects I make are very open-ended, but the projects I will be looking for are tutorials, 3d animations, operating systems, and some games. I have made a tutorial for 3d animation in the past.

Here's a good guide (written by me, but I'm not trying to sound narcissistic, I'm just trying to help you) to use to when writing your post.

Username: ProgrammingPro01 [or PP01 for short]
Why I want to be a curator: I really want curator because I want to be able to pick projects [not mostly minecraft this time  tongue  ] that interest me and has a really good chance of interesting other people.
What i will do in my time: I will pick interesting projects every time I have to,
games, simulations, and music related projects

But 1 question incase i do make it to be a curator: What are the times I have to curate? Just so I know to pick a project before.

Thanks!,

Re: Become a Curator on the Scratch Homepage

Hi! I would like to be a curator! :-) The projects I'd like to see are funny and original projects. I would like to curate people that haven't many views on their projects. I know a lot of people on Scratch whom make awesome projects on Scratch but nobody views them. I'd like to make them known on Scratch and help them get appreciated for the hard work they put into projects!

Well it is. I don’t want to disappoint you, but I’m going to. An application is an application, and everyone else seems to have one to. This actually is just another application, and while it doesn’t seem to be ridiculous, or implausible, it is just another of the thousand “I want to be currator” posts. I don’t mean to tell you that you aren’t special, but no one is.

I wish that you become curator, best of luck to you! I just wanted to correct you.

Curators have a two week period to curate. Although I have heard discussion that it may be (if not already) two and a half weeks.

Re: Become a Curator on the Scratch Homepage

I would like to apply to be a Scratch Curator. I would only display projects that are not popular (less then 50 views). And only curate projects that are good in graphics, game play, and originality. I will NEVER curate my own projects. I hope you consider me. Thanks!  smile

Scratch on!  wink

Re: Become a Curator on the Scratch Homepage

Hello! I would like to nominate alldaykade28471 for curator! ADK has moral values, a nice system, and would curate some perfect projects, even if they aren’t her own. I hope you consider her, because she would make a great curator, and not just because of the projects she would curate. She is also kind and fair, and understands that she shouldn’t curate herself, or famous projects. Please make alldaykade28471 curator because she definitely deserves it.  wink

Why not? I post here often, but I haven't nominated myself once. I don't really want to be curator, but others seem I think it's a pretty big deal, so if there's someone in particular who I think would be a good curator, I suggest them.

Personally, I think this forum would be a lot better if no one could nominate themselves.

I would like to be a curator. I like games with a lot of cool ideas or really funny animations. I also really like intricate games. If I were curator that would be really cool. Thanks

Yes, I agree. But there are some complications that could come up, such as, Scratcher A suggests Scratcher B to became curator, but Scratcher B doesn't even want to. Beforehand, you will have to check with that person if they want to or not.
