On the front page, just below the curated projects, I think there should be a short description from the curator about each project. For example, for Retina 10 OS, which is being curated now, the description could be, 'sleek design and graphics, an awesome OS!' This way people will get a feel about what the project is, if the description draws them in. What do you think?

I like this idea. It's a great way for the curator to explain why they curated a specific project, and also a way for people to see if a project is going to be interesting before clicking on it

i agree too, it'd be really cool to see the curator's thoughts on a project
i think the curator system itself kind of needs an overhaul too and should probably be separate from favourites but maybe that's just me

Many curators already post comments on projects explaining why they choose to curate them I don't know if those descriptions should be mandatory though.

I mean, their comment about the project would be on tge front page under the icon of the project, so that you don't have to click on it to see what the project is about

I agree!

I strongly support. That way you know what you're clicking and why it's front paged.

I support because this would add extra clarity to why a curator picked a project.

Not you.

Once, someone curated a relatively simple project, and everyone got mad. If he would have explained why he curated it, perhaps there'd be less confusion.
Support. And yes, I do think the whole curator thing should be renovated.

I think all projects should have this... Just 100, 150 characters to describe your game before peple click on it and can read the longer project notes...

Yeah, nice idea! You could view them by clicking a small collapsable comment section below the icon of the project, where the owner of the project briefly describes it
