My projects won't show up on newest projects.

My projects never show up on the newest projects thing.

Re: My projects won't show up on newest projects.

This happens to a lot of people. Scratch seems to randomly pick newest projects. I've only ever seen mine on newest once.

Re: My projects won't show up on newest projects.

It's the same for me, maybe it takes a while for it to pop up there?
Or Getty might be right...

No, what happens is, each projoect has to stay on the front page for a certain amount of time, and then the next one comes up.

Whatever it is, one thing is clear: it happens to lots of people. But don't worry, because your project will be on the Scratch Website eventually.  smile

Acually, your project is on the website when it is completley uplaoded but doesn't always show up on "Newest Projects".  sad

Re: My projects won't show up on newest projects.

Every 5 minutes the website takes a snapshot of the 3 latest projects. If there were more than 3 projects uploaded in the lapse of 5 minutes some projects will not show up. The reason why we take the snapshot every 5 minutes is because otherwise our server can get quite slow.

Let's admit it now, there are many members on scratch. So many, in fact, that scratch is getting many projects all the time! Someday, you will make it on! I know you will!!!!

That explains it very clearly. Thanks!
