You know what might help? Making this a (shorter run time) Scratch Design Studio theme. that way a lot more scratchers would make mockups and you could get a lot more ideas. just an idea.  smile

That's a really cool idea! However, I think the collaborative spirit that's going on in this thread - people sharing and collecting ideas and coming up with a list of desired features, is more conducive to good design. But it still might be fun to have a "Brainstorm about the new my stuff page" Design Studio....

Nice! Having the featured project be life sized and playable is an interesting idea! I'd have to think about that one... how would it change the experience of people browsing other people's my stuff pages to have a project start playing as soon as they did?

Wow - that's big! It's so much information though, I'm concerned it might be visually overwhelming. Also, allowing comments on a user's my stuff page might be fertile ground for conflicts -- that's one reason why we've kept comments to galleries and projects only so far.

One thing I like about this that I've also seen in a few other mockups is the "About Me" section.  But what if we used Scratch instead of text?

You could make a Scratch project "About me" and share it to your profile. Then click the "About Me" box on your my stuff page. You would then be prompted to select a single project as your "About Me" project. Its thumbnail would then appear in the "About Me" section so visitors could click on it and be taken to that project.

Do you think that would work as well as text?

I think it will help give an idea of the scratcher, and let the user find good projects. Example: If I went on 08jact's account now, and looked at an update, I would think: "This guy can't make good games!" But if his featured project was up (Probbally iSyn) He would become one of my favorite scratchers!

how about if the project didn't start playing, but rather had a play button you could press if you wanted to play the project?

Re: Post mockups of customizable user pages here!

My Ideas:

-Message, a short message of you.

-Draggable Projects to Arrange, to put your best projects in front.

-Color and Background Switch, or Themes

-Choose which catagories of projects.
For example, you know how there is the My Projects and My Favorites? They could have it optional for all of these:
All My Projects
My Games
My Animations
My Other Projects
My Favorites

-User Featured Stuff, like the user selects their own project or gallery to say it is the ones they want everyone to look at.

-My Top Fave, like ONE project that the user selects make by another user.

-Status, like on Facebook but for what projects you are working on.


A mock up for it is coming soon.

That would be an option, true.  But a full size project would still take up a lot of space and emphasis on the userpage. That's not necessarily bad, but it could be confusing since it will look a lot like the project page.

I'm not sure if this will be possible, but I hope that as we move to flash we'll get more options as far as size goes - so you could play a project at half size.  Or perhaps you click on the thumbnail, and the project expands so you can play it right on the page?

Ah - really good example! So the featured project shows you what the Scratcher is mainly interested in / working on at the moment. It really would, as you say, "Help give an idea of the Scratcher."

Awesome - your list of ideas sounds great.  smile  I look forward to seeing it.

And I thought I might as well show what happens when you click Arrange Projects - little things appear on the projects that you use to drag them. They're supposed to look like arrows, but they sort of failed... again, click for full size.

That sounds good. Maybe, to make things less confusing, you click the thumbnail and are asked if you want to expand? I like theidea of half-size too.

Re: Post mockups of customizable user pages here!

You could try something like these: http://route50.net/base/ You can say ANYTHING you wish, like quiz results, or just something about you!

Btw, that is the base for my Route 50 account. It is mine, and so is everything in the detail box. My good friend is the brother of the webmaster.

Let's think through how this might work. Please make mockups that show: 1) What a customized user page might look like, and 2) The controls used to create the customized page. Post them below, and join in the discussion!

That's would work pretty well! It's better than being able to upload images (because of spam and and inappropriate stuff).
