Re: ITopic: How to make your projects/galleries popular

Glad to have helped. Just one thing though... you don't need to quote the whole thing, just use a normal post. It's all right, it just takes up a lot of space.  tongue

Re: ITopic: How to make your projects/galleries popular

This did help! Thanks jon. I was just wondering how to get a picture into description... I'm guessing you copy and paste it right? But how do you get the picture which you copy in the first place? If this sounds like a silly question, then I apologise  big_smile

Re: ITopic: How to make your projects/galleries popular

I would also like to suggest that you have a bold picture which stands out so when people see your project they choose that one rather than the others around it, if that makes sense. Make it professional... If on the front page I see a project with an uninteresting picture with poorly drawn graphics i wouldn't view it. :p Hope this helped.

Thanks MrMunchkin, I really appreciate that.

What do you mean by getting a picture into the description? Are you talking about the project notes? Because you can't do that...

Re: ITopic: How to make your projects/galleries popular

couldn't you use propaganda techniques, like, with the name, advertising, and making the project pic look good?

I didn't see your post, even though I check each day for posts! Well, this topic covers advertising, and it mentions the project picture. But the name... simple enough, why isn't it in there?  tongue  I'll go add it...  smile

How would that exactly work? Or are you talking about the technique of getting friends that view your projects and galleries?

Re: ITopic: How to make your projects/galleries popular

You mean projects that advertise other projects? Hmmm, it'd be hard to find a good project to do that, and it's sort of weird. I won't be putting that in the list of ways to get popular projects/galleries, but I'll put you in the Tips from others section.  smile

This topic covers projects and galleries.  smile

If you want people to comment, try asking in the project notes. That way people that see your gallery might comment.

If you want to advertise a project or gallery, you can create your own topic for it.  wink
