I HAZ NO PROJECTZ THAT R FRONT PAGED sad , but on the other hand for some ppl, for almost every project they make GETS FRONT PAGED! hmm i.e Jonzo, scratchU8, etc. THESE PPL ARE HOGGING THE FRONT PAGE! mad so to help this, The scratch team should make a "Help These Projects" section on the front page. lol This section would have projects that got like 3 views in 5 days, no love-its, no favorites. This would help everyone on scratch.

This has been in discussion for as long as I can remember. If you want to get curated, and you feel you have a REALLY deserving project (don't try this unless you REALLY feel your project deserves the front page and doesn't have too many views already, try this:

1) Go to the Scratch Homepage and look at the row titled 'Projects selected by _______'.
2) Search for the user who is in the blank and go to their page.
3) On one of their projects, leave a comment explaining why you feel your project deserves the front page, how a lot of effort was put in and it gets little views. Include a link (just insert the projects URL and it turns into a link). Aim for about 60 words.
4) If the curator agrees with you, your project will be front paged and the views will come pouring in!
5) In the future, do NOT create poor projects with little effort, and this could lose you your popularity. Remember that everything you upload might get front-paged.

I support. But after all, Jonzo and ScratchU8 are famous, and usually, famous Scratchers hit the front page a lot. But that doesn't mean they're hogging it. tongue Also, don't make such a big deal that your projects hardly hit the front page. It takes a lot of patience and believing in yourself to become famous. Look at some projects that might have tips for help. big_smile

How can anyone hog the front page? They don't choose who gets on the front page.
But I agree that there should be SOME way for unpopular scratchers to become viewed more. That probably would actually get rid of lots of the "I QUIT BYE NOBODY CARES ABOUT ME >( BYE!" projects (I know they're not exactly like that, but you get the idea).

@Firedrake969 I noticed too. XD
