Hey zovek, if you want to help make sprites for people, you can do to the 'Requests' forum and set up a thread there offering to make custom sprites. But please don't leave links that seem to promote websites outside of Scratch, okay?  wink

Re: Become a Curator on the Scratch Homepage

I would definitely want to be a curator. I love games that are really fun to play, but are really simple, or have a small file-size. I also love physics and strategy games.

I helped a lot of people get connected with scratch. I've given many of my friends personal tutorials at home, and each one of them has become a really great Scratcher. I view many projects, and I click "Love it" and I comment if they are good. I feel that if some one has put a lot of hard work into a project, then that person deserves for that project to be known and be loved. I hate it when someone puts a lot of effort into something and almost no-one sees it. I know what it's like.

Thanks!

Re: Become a Curator on the Scratch Homepage

Well, I like to look at lots of projects ALL THE TIME. Seriously. I think i would be a good
Curactor. I would give everyone there chance of popularity. I have seen VERY VERY amazing projects that don't even get more that 3 veiws. I would like to show the talent scratchers out in the scratch community. I fell bad for them, and everyone deserves a chance to shine and show off the true talents  big_smile

Re: Become a Curator on the Scratch Homepage

I want to be a curator for these reasons;
I think that the idea of a game is no where near as important as how well programed.
When motivating myself i dont think "But thats a bad idea" I think "Lets code that "
Its about the ability if it deserves to be on the front page.
Not the idea.
Like a special platform game that dosent load.
Thank you for my attention

Re: Become a Curator on the Scratch Homepage

Hello!

I would like to be the next curator because, I would pick games that have a complex system, for example, a side-scroller where if you jumped high enough, it would change the y position of the terrains, and if you touched the sides of the wall or something, you couldn't move, or, a game where you walk around and it scrolls, both x and y, depending on which way you move (example: when right key pressed change x by -5, when left key pressed change x by 5, when up key pressed change y by -5, when down key pressed change y by 5). And I would pick animations that use the turn scripts, like if a hand was waving, use the turn scripts, and, using the glide script too. I would pick projects that use Scratch's features to their extent.

~ClubMario<stamp><change pen size by( <set pen shade to( <change pen shade by( <change pen color by( <pen up><pen down><clear><repeat( <forever><when[  ]clicked><turn cw(  )degrees><glide(  )secs to x sad   )y sad  <turn cw(  )degrees>

Re: Become a Curator on the Scratch Homepage

Hi, Scratch team!
I think you know me by now. This is my 3rd or 4th request to be a curator.
(clears throat)
Let me try again...
I would like to be a curator. I am ten years old. I think being a curator would be fun because I could look for projects that deserve more views.
I am devoted to art, and I love it. I would feature projects about all kinds of things, not just art.
Being a curator would be a great experience for me, but if I was ever picked, it would be a big commitment for me to feature new projects every day. I have school from 8:30 to 3:30 every day.
Whether you pick me or not, I toast to the future Scratch curators of 2010!

Re: Become a Curator on the Scratch Homepage

I would like to be a Scratch curator. I've been on scratch for a year and a half, and I have made more than 300 projects including games, animations, and music. I'm not very famous, but people might know me from my Magic Stones game (which was featured for 4 days) or my Optimum Paint program (which was recently curated by LS97 for about a week.) From experience, I think I know which projects I would want to select.

First of all, I think that not just the complex, glitchless games should be curated. I would want to select projects that showed effort on the part of the creator. For example, if someone has only shared a few projects and they are of moderate quality, I would be impressed and curate one of them. If someone has shared many projects and are of moderate quality, I wouldn't be as impressed because they have more experience.

Also, I would generally try to select projects from users that I haven't seen on the front page before. That gives the user an opportunity to see what it's like to have lots of views and popularity when before they had only gotten 2 or 3 views per project.

I know that a long essay on my part wouldn't increase my chances of getting the spot, but hey. At least it's better than the people who don't explain themselves.  smile

EDIT: What's this I hear about favorites? When you're curator what do you have to do with them?

Re: Become a Curator on the Scratch Homepage

It would be really cool to be a curator. I've always wanted to do something on the SCratch website because it means a lot to me. My friends did a whole study on Scratch and they told me all these things about it. It helps kids learn math and mechanics. It would be my dream to be a SCratch curator. Please pick me to do it. It means a lot to me. I would put out good projects of many different people. Thanks in advance.

Re: Become a Curator on the Scratch Homepage

Hel-lloooo! The one and only reason I want to be a currator is because i'm sick and tired of all them famous people being on the front page. In terms of projects, I would add any project i feel deserves to be on the front page. I have a 1 project on front page per user max. I'm doing this for other people, not myself. (Okay, maybe a little bit for myself, but still)<( Me+Scratch <=> Happiness )>
