Another idea, instead of an “advertise” button, it just chooses from a few of your favorites?
an option for that maybe? that might be better

Agreed.

I like the way you think, sir.

lol

Well you could always just add the projects you DO want into your favorites and advertise those.

As I already agreed with efisher82, maybe it could be an option.

here is my idea.
on the page with the project there would be another section like "More Projects by -----"
called "Adds"
http://i41.tinypic.com/11w3j1u.png and below the project would be an advertise button
http://i44.tinypic.com/14jwbxu.png . when you click it it adds the project to a list and on all of your projects it would pick 3 random projects from this list and you could not advertise your own

Well, I like it, it's kind of like "I like this project so I'll advertise it on my projects". big_smile

We'll have to see what the rest of the Scratch Team says about it, though. ^^

I did notice something, though - there seems to be a dispute on whether or not it should be based off of one's favorites or not. Another idea: some people have a gallery for projects they feel should be featured and might want to seclude the ads to those in that gallery only. What do you guys feel is the best method in determining the selection of projects for ads? smile

Maybe you could choose which projects to advertise once you upload the project. For example, you upload through Scratch. Then, you log into your account. After that, you are prompted to choose up to 3 projects to advertise. Of course, you don't have to advertise if you do not want to.

You can change anytime you want.

Support! Also, how about it says advertised by (name) on it so if it's a famous person who advertised it, then people will go to it.

I triple support! big_smile

kayybee · 2012-02-01 20:59:44

I believe this should only be on projects on the front page.
Also, change the name or else some people might think it's an actual commercial ad.

but it is in Suggestions

kayybee · 2012-02-01 23:01:14

no, i mean if they implement it, people may think those are commercial ads.

MoreGamesNow · 2012-02-05 20:23:01

Support! Sounds good to me. Almost like universal curation (which actually seems like an oxymoron). Anyway, sounds good to me. By the way, did you make a topic about this in the Scratch Suggestions where people can vote on it?

kayybee · 2012-02-06 01:34:01

I didn't support this officially.

I believed it needed some changes before it should have actually been implemented

yoshidude56 · 2012-02-12 14:32:31

I think that having a box that shows random projects by other users would be interesting (if that's what you mean)

Not quite random. Each user picks a number of number of projects and, on each of his/her projects, a number (3, maybe?) of each project is "advertised". The point is that "good" projects are advertised (because good projects are more likely to be chosen to add to a "ad list").

I think this seems like a good idea... I support!
