Do you want to get on the front page?

Almost everybody knows swifty2 and spritemaster, but, are you bored of having at least one of their projects on the front page all the time? For instance, look up projects tagged with 'lol'. You see the first 5 projects are made by swifty2. If you think your projects will do a good job on the front page, post.

Re: Do you want to get on the front page?

I think there need to be a cap on how many times you can get on the front page.
They are famous enough already, they do not need more fame.
And there are plenty of unknown people with projects more deserving, but because they can not get the attention in the first place they are unlikely to ever get it.

Re: Do you want to get on the front page?

i wish i could get my -inator creator on the front page. i was on the front page once, but it wasn't my best project and very few people looked at my other projects.

Re: Do you want to get on the front page?

I think maybe one or two of my projects would be front page material. It's kinda unfair that the same people get to take the spotlight, it causes scratch members to be sad  hmm

Ive looked at famous scratchers projects, and found most of them have 1 style. Like spritemaster, he makes uh... sprites. and swifty2 makes animations featuring swifty. youve got to get people waiting for your next project. one time i saw emoboy1s project in newest. All his projects had around 4 veiws. NOW, they have at least 100. so it can actualy happen to anybody.

Oh yeah, he makes that not funny at all animation series.

A dancing cat doesnt really help getting on the front page. Also, you can only get a featured project if Paddle2see watches it and he doesnt watch every single project. But good project anyway.

Ha, i looked at a fan episode of stickmania and saw that he said "good try. these are very hard to make, and i make it look easy." i downloaded it and saw the script was something i could do with my eyes closed. Well, not really with my eyes closed, but the script was ultra simple.

You need an exceptional amount of veiws or love-its in an exceptional timeframe.

Very true! Scratchers like swifty and 08jackt are easily dominating the front page while obscure Scratchers' projects go mostly unknown!  mad Help support this idea for a better, more diverse front page!

Re: Do you want to get on the front page?

YES... I mean, I've made a project which was almost or AS GOOD as kcdscratch's Sonic Advance (look for Sonic The Hedgehog Scratch in the search engine).


I might return for a little while.
