Re: How do you get famous??????

FAME DOESN'T COME OVERNIGHT.

On scratch, the key is to do these steps in order. It's a fairly good way, doesn't always work I assume.

a. friending people & getting them to friend back
b. Have reeeally good games, art or animation
c. interact and relate to a lot of themes most scratchers like
d. Be welcoming, kind and inviting to people who like your work
e. DONT SPAM YOUR PROJECTS or do publicity stunts (that's publicity over hatred. Big no no)
f. know the best galleries to put your work in.

By that, you only get well known. Not really famous.  wink

But you don't necesarrily get famous by making a good project, either... And becoming well known is the first step to fame, in my opinion.

Projects.

When my Meteor shower game got top loved, and Etch-a-Scratch was featured, my career began...

...and then I found the forums, and I have lived here since.  lol

Re: How do you get famous??????

Oh.

Well, I didn't get very well known at all until... maybe a couple of my projects being curated? Then I was curator, then I was a TBG moderator, then I stopped coming on and now most people don't know me anymore.

However, I don't really care about how famous I am. I beleive that some people want to be famous so their opinions, projects, and other things can be seen, heard, and understood...
