While serving as curator, the Scratcher’s most recent Favorites will be featured in a row on the Scratch Homepage.

It sounds like SCRATCH will just automatically pick the three recent projects favored by the curator. But if I were curator, I would like some say in which three of my favorites appear on the home page. Would that be possible?

I suspect, since it is going to pick your most recent three favorites, that you could force it to pick the ones you want by unfavoriting and then refavoriting projects to manipulate the dates...kind of awkward maybe, but I bet it would work.

Re: Become a Curator on the Scratch Homepage

You need to be picked first. try saying why you would pick those and why you shouldbe picked.
Ex:
I would pick the Ground Hog day one becuase It was funny and the creator tried to make it fuuny along with making it have to do with a recent holiday

Ex: I think I should be chosen becuase I am good at finding ones that pop out( pick something you are good at that might help)

Hope this was helpful  smile

I would also like to become a curator. I would probably choose mainly games- especcially well-made and/or humorous RPGs and TDs.

Re: Become a Curator on the Scratch Homepage

Hello. I would like to become a curator is because there are so many projects that have not many views yet should go on the front page and give them a chance.
I will pick many funny,exciting,imaginable,unique projects that don't have many views yet are still good and to give them a chance to be front paged.

Re: Become a Curator on the Scratch Homepage

Hi Scratch Team!
I would like to be a curator because I want to emphasize projects that have nice controls or smooth animations. I also like projects that make me wonder how this is possible on a little program like scratch. An example of this is a project I saw called Star Fox PC made by jakeemma. Here is the adress:
http://scratch.mit.edu/projects/jakeemma/2315364
I liked this project because it had nice, smooth controls and the 3D part was simply amazing and something I wondered how it could be done. I would be a good person for the curator position because I already have good ideas for projects that I would like to curate. Please consider this application, and thank you.

Hi! My name is undefeatedgames and I would like to be curator. There are so many projects that go unnoticed. Most Scratchers focus their attention on users such as thesuperguidegames, SpriteMaster, and jonzo. This leaves many projects to be viewed. Sometimes, those not-so-famous projects are a lot better.

What I like about Scratch is that it encourages creation. You can post your artwork, music, animations, and games online. There's no other site that allows you to do that, unless of course you make your own.

So what projects are interesting? It depends. I like games that have action, excellent graphics and programming, and are challenging (but not too challenging). For example, The Maze of Fungi Demo Version by sausagefanclub definitely fits in that category. Animations are excellent when they include mouths that sync well with the voices, like jonzo's The Taco Incident and SpriteMaster's newest StickMania episode. Tutorials and project ideas are also excellent projects to be curated, as they provide beginners with help that they can use in the long run. I felt that the recent design studio, "Let Me Show You Around", helps a lot of Scratchers to use the software and website.

So what projects would I curate? I would curate projects that deserve to be known to the Scratch community, but are overshadowed by other projects that may not be as good. I would try and choose three games, three animations & art, three projects with excellent and complicated programming, and a surprise project from one of my cousins. These projects would have less than 100 views.

Thank you for looking at this application. Please consider me for curator.

Re: Become a Curator on the Scratch Homepage

Hello, I am GodFollower. I understand that you have a lot of people who apply to become a curator, so I would understand if I were not to be chosen (considering the odds). Either which way it goes, I would like to become curator. My interests for Scratch projects are as follows:
-Projects that have had a significant amount of work put into them
-Projects with exemplary and distinguished artwork/graphics
-Games with creative storylines
-Games with no or barely any glitches
Looking at my amount of favorites, I know there are few, but if I do become a curator, I will fill it with the ones I think most deserve to be curated.

Hmm, it seems like that would be a broad genre.
Could you describe what games/animations you would curate, perhaps with an example?

The scratch team picks you. First , you apply for curator on this forum . You write, for example :
Hi, Scratch Team, I would really like to be a curator, if I would be one, I would pick games , stories or animations that don't have much veiws and deserve to go on the front page , hope I get picked, thanks.


That is an example, but you can make it a speech if you want, the scratch team reads all posts and picks one. The picked curator can put projects on the front page. And that's how you can be a curator.  wink  hope this helped

Re: Become a Curator on the Scratch Homepage

I, soraandsonic apply myself to be a curator for these reasons.

I'm a helpful person with a kind heart and will choose the project or games that need it.

I'll curate any game or project but has to be under 40 views and the person can be anyone new or kinds popular.

So, if u want a good person to be a curator, apply me.
