I´ve never, EVER been on the front page and some of my projects, like the Exo-Planet Explorer Series, are really good. But no-one ever looks at them! I´m getting really annoyed! mad mad mad

Easy, easy. Just post your projects on Show and Tell, into galleries (but not to those "ADD THEM ALL!", they're pretty mess), and you'll see increase of views. And, no offence, none of your projects really deserve front page. Sorry sad !

dav09 · 2009-08-20 14:00:14

ive never got any of mine some of them in total took upto 48 hours (over 2 months !) and never on the front page !lifes not fair !

that was pretty mean, don't worry dotdude, keep making projects, and keep getting better at the scratch program. try and think up cool or unique things that are original. stay active on the forums, and advertise your projects in a non spamming way. it might take a while, but eventually you might be on the front page, and it will be worth all the work.

filo5, That wasn't a very nice comment. Don't worry, your projects will be on the front page eventually. I have always wanted to be on the front page. I still haven't but if you keep on Scratching, and stay strong and true to Scratch, eventually you will make that spot! smile It is waiting for a dedicated scratcher, like you, to fill it up!

Keep On Scratching,
MKR smile

Look at my quote, you just might find it helpful when it's a rainy day, or you need advice!

Not everyone can reach the front page. I only got featured because Lanie and Jonathanpb recommended my Calculator.

EDIT: MKR, you've got a nice signature!

I think that if you are using scratch just because of the chance of getting frontpage then you are using it for the wrong reasons. If you just want attention go to youtube.

MKR, he said 'no offense'. So he didn't want to be mean. He was just pointing it out.

Don't worry filo5, keikjj once said that I was very discouraging in the Suggestions forum. So it isn't just you.

It deserved it. Your projects deserve getting on.

Archmage! You posted 5 seconds before my first post in this topic!

That's a good way of putting it. And that's true.

Been there, done that and I get alot more attention here than on youtube.

Mawile · 2009-08-21 07:56:48

i've only been on the front page once...

technoguyx · 2009-08-21 08:31:44

I've been there a bunch of times already - In fact, right now I have a project on Top Remixed.

Do what other people have suggested - Advertise your projects on Show & Tell, and galleries - If you're good at drawing ads, you could advertise your stuff on my upcoming project, Scratch Sim. Also practice every day and see what each block does, and read tutorials to become better at Scratch.

adriangl · 2009-08-21 17:16:08

I've never been on the front page and I have been a user for 2 years! But my projects don't really deserve to be.

Anyways, put a link in your signature, post on Show and Tell, put in a gallery, tag(with appropriate tags), and you'll have a few more views big_smile

scmb1 · 2009-08-21 17:23:34

You've been a member for a bit over a month! Be patient.

illusionist · 2009-08-21 17:38:13

You can't honestly expect to get the front page after only a month of being on scratch can you? The thing that annoys me most is ridiculus complaints! mad

The-Whiz · 2009-08-21 17:43:57

Yeah... It took me 2 years to get a front-pager!

FFI · 2009-08-21 17:44:25

Have you posted your projects online? If so i would like to think that you have been on the front page section called 'newest projects'. (tongue-in-cheek)

None of my games have ever been featured either. And, my hangman game has almost 200 "love it" votes.

Sometimes project are too good to be featured--like mine. I'm sure that's the issue with yours too.

Keep trying, you'll get there.

Yup, and theres probably thousands just like you wink . So don't make a fuss. I have good projects too, especially my latest, though the only one that got on the front page was one that I least thought it would neutral my fortune teller o.O

bhz · 2009-08-22 10:18:43

Everything I wanted to say in this post has already been mentioned. I agree with everyone here

Well, I find it difficult, like multiple people to find a way to say that a person's projects or project or anything else on scratch is bad, most of these kids keep getting offended. If somebody says something like that to me, I generally ask them what isn't good and how I can improve. Now if it's something about the genre of game or something similar to that, I might mention that it's all upon opinion, and not get angry just because of one person who doesn't like it.

cds56 · 2009-08-22 12:47:40

Never gotten on the front page, and to be honest, I think some of them deserve to be.

Well, technically Ive been on the front page about 120 times.

Grr.... my highest views was at last count 123. and the project was just a quickie.
