Try putting your projects into featured galleries, other galleries, posting on Show and Tell on Scratch forums. Also, make alot of friends, so they can see your new porjects. Never spam.  smile

Re: Can I have some help?

Scratch isn't about getting popular. Sure, being on the frontpage is nice, but forcing your way to the top isn't a good idea.

That said, wanting to be noticed is fine! Here's some ideas:
• Put links to your projects in your signature - your signature is attached to every post you make, so it's free advertising! Using the Show and Tell forum is a good way, too.

• Put quality over quantity. Trust me - putting out a bunch of little projects every day doesn't get you noticed, but spending time on good-quality projects does.

• Leave constructive and helpful comments. For example, instead of saying "THIS IS TERRIBLE IT'S SO GLITCHY AND BORING", say "This isn't bad, but you could improve it by doing this:" It makes people think you're an expert  tongue

What not to do:
• Spam links to your projects in your comments. People really hate getting those comments, and it usually doesn't work.

• Perform publicity stunts, i.e. quitting, coming back, quitting, coming back, etc.

just follow these steps, and you'll find yourself getting a lot more views!


I'm taking a break from Scratch until 2.0 comes out. Any messages sent between then and now probably won't be read - sorry.
