How do I get featured?

Originally, I was going to post this in the FAQ, but you can't post topics there...

Anyways, I've been wondering what it takes for some time what the process is to get a project featured.

Is there certain criteria?
Are some projects unqualified?
Who chooses what gets featured?

There is basic stuff like it should follow the ToU and it shouldn't have been featured before, but there is probably other stuff.

I'd like to know because I myself haven't been featured and I would like to know if anything I have is a potential candidate or whether I could modify anything to be *worthy*.

Any responses?

There isn't really any criteria. Just whatever catches the eye of the scratch team.

Well I think I heard some thing about limiting loveIt's or length of being on the site...

Well as a start they like to use some of this criteria but it is quite flexible (except for the originality and copyright parts)

Re: How do I get featured?

The thread where you can propose projects is not necessarily always true. if a member of the scratch team comes upon a cool project that they think is cool, they can feature it


Dear Scratch Users,
I'm done with scratch, or at least making projects. I have made one last big game, thats both fun and teaches a lesson about water. It'd mean a lot if you gave me feedback.                              http://scratch.mit.edu/projects/bosox397/569201

All featured projects are chosen by the Scratch Team. I was just stating that some of the criteria for the proposing projects is similiar to what they look for when they feature something.
