Help with the front page

I haven't been on scratch in a while, so i don't know if this is supposed to happen, but, oh well. Every single time i go to the front page, the newest projects are always changing. If you constantly refresh the page, the projects keep switching. Say there is a project called "Cheese" in the newest projects section: if i refresh the page, it will be gone. however, i refresh it several more times, it will once again be in the newest projects section. On top of all that, if you click "see more", it will show that these projects were actually all posted about 20 minutes ago. Now, this wouldn't be a problem for people who only play and watch scratch projects. but for someone who uploads them, it can pose a problem. Back when I was new on scratc, i remember that the moment the scratch program said "Your project is now on scratch.mit.edu", that if you went to the website right then and right there, you would see it in the newest projects column. However, because of this new issue, me, nor any of the people on the homepage usually see any of my projects there right after i upload them. I've been struggling trying to make a comeback, but with the issue I am having, it is impossible to be noticed. I ask at least for some answers, as I have no idea why this is happening. Thank you, and scratch on!

Re: Help with the front page

This announcement might shed some light on things. ^^ If you would like to get more views on your projects, you could try advertising them in the Show and Tell forum - I found that it helps quite a lot with more views. You could also make (or request) a banner for your signature, advertising your projects  smile  Hope this helps!
