Suggestions: Monetizing Projecta, ect.

Here are my suggestions:

1. Monetizing Projects
This one would be so scratch and you could make money! It could be set up with a google ads account or something. If someone did not have ads on their projects, they would not be monetized and would not make money. If you monetized your projects, you'd make a little money. (One thing is the age of scratchers- they can't really handle money- so maybe something like scratch cash? Look at my next suggestion:)

2. Scratch Cash
This would support the first idea. We could earn scratch cash by being nice to scratchers or even monetizing, or making ads on your projects! With scratch cash you should be able to buy love-its. Some people are complaining about the misuse of love-its so maybe you start of with 10 love-its and it could make you know to ONLY give love-its to the projects that deserve them.

3. Scratch Approved Collaborations
Maybe you could submit your collab to the scratch team with a speech about it, and the scratch team could approve it! After they approve it, it would almost be like a status under your forum name.
Example Statuses: Scratch Test Collab Manager, Scratch Test Collab Programmer, and so on...

Thank you!

Coolhogs: Scratch was made for education, not money.

Coolhogs: I have to admit, this sounds good, but people could make accounts and advertise themselves.

3. Scratch Approved Collaborations
Maybe you could submit your collab to the scratch team with a speech about it, and the scratch team could approve it! After they approve it, it would almost be like a status under your forum name.
Example Statuses: Scratch Test Collab Manager, Scratch Test Collab Programmer, and so on...

Coolhogs: Sounds good...
But I disagree on the status part. That would take a while for the ST.

Thank you!

All explained...

The ST has talked about money before, and the answer is always no. And the statuses would be confusing.

Scratch money would NEVER turn into real cash, so the poster about that, Scratch Team has never said no to it.

I think it's a great idea.
