Emilypie as new curator! 
Emilypie is the 40th curator! She has a method of choosing a different theme every time she curates (eg. snake projects, art tutorials etc). Congrats to her, good luck! 

Front Page tips!
Here are a few tips for getting on to the front page: Firstly the most easiest is fake quitting. It annoys people and gets other more deserving projects off the front page, so I really wouldn't recommend it. But it is really effective.    Another idea is to think what you like and make something related to it, for example I like art and drawing, and when I made my paint project it soon got featured!    Another thing that most people like is games. From platformers to scrollers to quizes. Their are many helpful tutorials out there for you to try to help with games, so get making! One more tip is to stick to one thing, while a variety can be good sticking to one type of project makes you get better and better at it. Like some popular scratchers have one speciality, like swifty and TEC are great at animations 08Jackt is amazing with games. Some, however like Wolfie1996 make a variety of projects and get very popular. Lol, this article is 10x as big as the one above

Farewell Archives! 
Recently the archives section on the forums went away!    Luckily their haven't been any protests/flame wars about it. I too am sad too see it leave (even if you couldn't post on it! xD But I guess it was probably a good idea though, since it would make it quite a bit slower. So, FAREWELL archives XD.
