Ugh... I hate this.
Yeah, I do. I'm not that 'wanty' on popularity, but I'm a pretty terrible scratcher. One of my best inspirations, Bluestribute has left. Why is it always the famous scratchers that get all the attention? Doesn't anybody try to look for undiscovered talent? And Paddle2see... thank you! thank you! thank you! When I saw that 'you have one message' thing, I thought it would be another comment requesting to look at a project that's like mine, but way better. However, it was Paddle2see trying to make me feel good about one of my projects. I'm just asking for somebody to kind of look around at some of the other scratcher's projects. Did you discover something?

Re: Ugh... I hate this.
practice is good. if you practice you will get better at making games. if you make good projects people will look at your projects.
there are 3 kinds of people: those who are good at math and those who are good at speling.

Don't worry about popularity, its mostly based on luck.
Some people who frequently get frontpage aren't that great and some people who put out really great projects never get too noticed.
My favoriteunknown scratcher is stevii. I just like his stuff.

Actually, I got "famous" because I used the forums too much.

I feel a bit like you sometimes... but Spriters Resource can help! Projects are really popular if they have crisp graphics... I use sprites from Paper Mario (copyright Intelligent Systems/Nintendo), but they have EVERYTHING NINTENDO! It pwns! I think their sprites make up for my Lack of Scripts.
