How to Get Featured
How do projects get featured on the front page?
You can suggest projects to be featured in this studio: https://scratch.mit.edu/studios/4228481/
On the past iTopic Propose forum page for proposing features, Paddle2See, a Scratch Team member, wrote:
The Scratch Team wants to feature new projects that have not gotten enough attention. We are looking for your help. At this point we only want proposals from people who have full Scratcher accounts (not New Scratcher). Also, please no proposals from family members. Thanks :)There are also some rules:
Please note that proposing a project does not mean we will feature it, we are only looking for suggestions. These are the kind of things we're looking for:
1. simple projects
2. complex projects
3. projects that show an innovative use of Scratch
4. project that promote collaboration and remixing
5. projects that show the diversity in our community (gender, age, culture, country, interests, etc)
6. project that different kinds of people would find enjoyable
7. projects that inspire
A project CANNOT be submitted if it…One of the most important rules is that you can not request yourself to be featured. However, some people have put a little blurb on their projects saying "If you liked this game feel free to request it to be featured at https://scratch.mit.edu/discuss/topic/198735/". It is allowed and some project have even gotten featured that way.
1. was created by you. This means that you CANNOT submit your project.
2. was created by someone whose project(s) have been on the front page already in the last two months (excluding Newest projects or Design Studio)
3. has received more than 100 love its already.
4. has violence including weapons, hurting animals or people
5. contains language inappropriate for all ages
6. is a copy of a commercial game or story, it's OK if it is inspired by though
7. has been on the front page already (excluding Newest projects or Design Studio) 8. doesn't work well online
In addition to projects, you can also request studios to be featured there too. You can even suggest your own!
I hope that helped. If you have any questions, feel free to comment below.

Most of the times simple art projects don't get featured. why?
ReplyDeleteThe Scratch Team chooses who gets featured, so I guess simple art projects are not one of their preferences.
DeleteHmmm...I kind of wish I got one of my animations featured, but at the same time, I'm good with how many people view my projects. Anyways, thanks for letting me know!
ReplyDeleteThanks for the info!
ReplyDeleteYou might want to update it, because now it's a studio. ( https://scratch.mit.edu/studios/4228481/ )
