Re: Become a Curator on the Scratch Homepage

okay, well here's a list of ones off the top of my head:
-Eruption by Delocuro
-Circ World by dsude10
-Space BETA by diabolicpride
-The Legend of Zelda, PlayWithFire
-Space Invaders by Daffy22
-Couges 3.0 by dsdude10

i could look through my favourites if you want more examples.

but reall if i was picked, i'd look to bring back like 1-3 year old projects that were really awesome but never got any views.

Re: Become a Curator on the Scratch Homepage

I think I would make a good curator. I like a variety of projects and would be sure to curate all types of them if selected as curator. I have been on Scratch for almost 3 and a half years and I have never been selected as curator. I think I would do a good job and I could bring publicity to a lot of good but not well-known projects.  cool

Re: Become a Curator on the Scratch Homepage

I would like to become a  curator! The main reason why is because most educational projects dont get as many veiws as humorous ones do and if their on the front page then more people would probably view them!  smile

Re: Become a Curator on the Scratch Homepage

id like to become a curator!  I really like helping new scratchers and I am very involved in forums and have many good ideas on how to improve scratch!  For one, there should be a "top educational projects" thing on the homepage so some of those projects will get publicity too!  Everyone deserves a chance, i think. So, please make me a curator!! XD  I also like a lot of projects and will choose great ones to be on the homepage!  I think i will make a great curator.  Thank you scratch team!!!

I would like to become curator. If I was curator then I would curate projects that deserve to have a bazillion views, but don't.

Lots of Scratchers have told us they want to show their favorite projects on the Scratch homepage. So we created a new role called "Scratch curator."

You can find more information here:
http://info.scratch.mit.edu/Become_a_Scratch_Curator

If you'd like to become a curator, reply to this forum thread. Tell us the kind of projects you'd like to show, and why you want to show them. We'll choose curators that represent the diversity of the Scratch Community - girls, boys, gamers, storytellers, animators - Scratchers of all kinds! We especially like to choose Scratchers who have been helpful and contributing members of the Scratch community.

I would love to become the scratch curator because I have just got back into scrathing and becoming a curator would be the pefect restart for me. Please choose me.

Re: Become a Curator on the Scratch Homepage

I would like to be a curator and I would select unpoplar projects that I feel took time and needed views, and I would scan most of the website to find them.

I would like to pick the projects that are interactive games, because they are fun and sometimes you learn from them. [blocks]<when I receive[

Re: Become a Curator on the Scratch Homepage

I would like to choose games becuase when people make them they usualy would work hours on end,plus if they don't get chosen that is just a waist of their time.

I don't think its a waste of my time, even if somebody gets no views they can still have fun and learn about how programming works. Its just like the quote my mom tells me all the time: What you learn is more important then what you win.
And also, I personally have more fun programming with scratch then having a lot of people view my projects.

Anybody else?  wink

Re: Become a Curator on the Scratch Homepage

What kind of projects I'd like to show? Well any project is a good project if it uses Scratch in a unique way.

I personally tend to lean on the gaming side but have come across very interesting animation and art projects.

I can't really say what projects I would choose because there are so many unique, complex and multi-layered projects that deserve to be noticed.

But I would choose projects that we as a Scratch community all can enjoy.

Well, that's me as a curator in a nutshell. Perhaps a larger than usual nutshell.

Re: Become a Curator on the Scratch Homepage

I'd like to become a curator, because I would pick projects that I thought had a lot of time put into them, because I spent a lot of time on my projects, and it is a bit disappointing to see all your hard worked projects getting no attention. I would pick projects that seemed to have a lot of work put into them, but had barely any views, let alone love its.

I hope you pick me so I can help the scratch community!  big_smile

Re: Become a Curator on the Scratch Homepage

Hi! I would like to be a curator.

There are a lot of projects out there that deserve more - curators get to bring those projects up to the spotlight. I would like to get a turn at helping those projects get what they deserve.

I would try and curate projects of all genres - you know, animations, interactive art, puzzles and the like. I'm also interested in curating the 'tools' (things like word processors or calculators) - those projects are really cool and don't get as much attention.

Please consider me as a curator - I would really appreciate it.  smile

Re: Become a Curator on the Scratch Homepage

I would like to be curator,
There are many projects that I believe deserve a front page slot for the effort and quality involved. Many genres would be chosen, eg. a comedy, an action, a competition.

Many projects involve high quality programming, but don't get to step into the light for their project.

Please consider my application,
   Yours sincerly
