oh nevermind. i get it. and yeah, they seem to be doing a good job. the only thing i hate about it is the surprise projects. those people didnt really actually earn it, yet there they are on front page. and it seems to be only a few numerous people who actually get a surprise project.

Surprise projects hasn't been on the front page for months...

Re: Become a Curator on the Scratch Homepage

I would love to be a scratch curator! I want to promote animals/warrior cats projects, or actual "series" or "shows" created by scratchers with actual animation in them, just like Japanese anime! This could be very fun for the scratch community!  big_smile

Re: Become a Curator on the Scratch Homepage

After many postless visits to this thread I have finnaly convinced myself that I too would like the chance to be a curator if ever possible  smile

I would display a variety of projects from movies, games etc:
I would also try and show those projects that never quite make it to featured or anywhere on the homepage but deserve an equal chance to do so.
I would also display projects often on a 3 new projects every 1-3 days (whatever i'm told is best)
smile

I also wish good luck to all those looking to be a curator ^^
We all share a similar goal  smile

Re: Become a Curator on the Scratch Homepage

I would like to be curator, if possible. If I was a curator, I would feature a mix of projects, of all types, on the front page. I would also feature some good projects that are little known but don't get enough attention. On top of that, I'm frequently on scratch (every day), and I'm homeschooled, so I would be able to catch those projects that get posted during school hours, and don't really get viewed.

Thank you Scratch team for giving me, and everyone else, a chance to do something great here.  smile

I, 2hermione3, would definitely like to be a curator. I would want to be one because it shows others what I enjoy. Also, they'd get to know me a little tiny bit better. I would like to show a variety of projects, games, music, animation...etc, etc. I hope you choose me to be a curator.

Re: Become a Curator on the Scratch Homepage

If Possible, I would very much like to become a Curator. If i'm to be chosen, i'd respect all of the rules the position has to offer, like i've always had. I would post up the projects by other people, the ones who usually don't get payed attention to and would deserve front page, not that the other Scratchers don't deserve it, but I figured it would be a kind thing for me to do, to lend a helping hand to those who need it. My favorite kind of projects are Animation, Art, and Games! That way, if I were chosen to be a Curator, I'd choose those three types of projects to be on the front page to make my decision fair.That's another thing I like to look out for. I wouldn't choose all one subject, I'd like to have variety in my picks, So that way I can keep the chosen projects organized and reasnable, that way there shouldn't be much arguing over who gets the spot. This should keep everyone happy. So, I really hope I get to become a Curator! I promise I'll do my best to help others any way I can!

I think that was beautiful.  big_smile  It's a great way to ask if you can be curator! If I could chose you'd be picked- but I'm not sure if scratch will pick you because your sorta famous. Anyway, good luck! ^^

Re: Become a Curator on the Scratch Homepage

Hello, I would like to be a Scratch Curator. My friend, petvet300, is currently curator and i really want to become one myself! I mostly want to become a curator so that some people on Scratch, who make the most awesome projects, could be a little more noticed and appreciated.  smile  So can i have a go at it? Please?

Re: Become a Curator on the Scratch Homepage

Oh, the curators. I'm not begging: but I'm suggesting that every once in a while curators would pick one type.
Ex:
P1: Art
P2: Game RPGs (Not Text)
P3: Advanced Simulation

Like three of a kind. I'm not saying that petvet & future curators todo this by force, I don't have the power to do that...it's just a suggestion. Err....should this be in suggestions?

probably since it is after all, a suggestion
ALSO people should put more in their post than

CAN I BE A CURATOR? PLEASE

It's very likely that since you have not given a lot of detail about what you will do ONCE your curator (what kind of projects you will pick and so on)

Hm, this sounds cool. If I were chosen for curator, I would choose what REALLY deserves front page, not one sprite-one script projects, but things that people actually work hard on. Sadly, I am one of those people who work very hard and never get the glory known as "frontpage", and even if I am curator, I cannot place my projects, but I am pleased that I can give others the chance to do so, and let them know that I am there to let them prosper in their career here in Scratch.

During my campaign, I will choose a selection of animations, educational projects, games, and sometimes simulations.  What do I classify as a game I should put in the curator spot? Anything that someone has worked long and hard hours on, clicking the green flag time and time again to see if they're project flows well, brings in the viewer(s), and entertain at the same time.

So choose me, FloatingMagicTree, as your next curator! *Dan dan danan dan danan danan danan dan* *confetti* *Star Spangled Banner plays* *croud cheers*

Re: Become a Curator on the Scratch Homepage

I have an idea for another way to pick curtators. Please read!
1. The Scratch Team, ScratchRs, and other people of power on the site vote, which counts as 50% of the final decision.
2. Scratch members vote from the top 3 that the people of power chose, which counts as the other 50%.
Please consider!!!!!
