Stumble upon an SG or member blog that really stood out of the rest? See a video that everyone on SG should see? Own or are a member of a group with a big event coming up? Entangled in a board debate that everyone should get involved with?

What should we be featuring on the front page right now? This is a place to make suggestions about anything you think we should feature on the front page blog.

In Fractal's latest blog, she's selling a print to raise money to donate to a cancer fund - I think that would be a great feature

Club Suicide (when it comes back), Prom, perhaps the east and west coast camping trips, and whenever I post a new blog*. All of these should be featured. Especially Club Suicide (you can probably just re-post Antigone's blog, hehe.)

* While I meant that jokingly to say that you should always feature my blog, it actually might be a good idea to have the person's blog who's looking at the front page randomly put up there just to look like it's being featured.

Will there be another way of submitting potential featured content besides posting in this thread? Like, perhaps a "Feature this" button that'd work similar to a flag button. Maybe that should be just it: a button that says "Flag as 'awesome'". If not, I think we're gonna wanna keep this thread stickied.

I like this idea, if it's possible.

I was about to suggest a "feature this" button!

Just please PLEASE don't put it in the Member Review area. That would be awful.

I think if you let the entire community flag stuff as awesome you'll get a plethora of hits on boring journals of random girls someone wanted to fuck.

I don't know about West Coast Camping, but East Coast is a private group, where people have to be vouched in. It would be difficult to feature anything from it, really.

Why not expand this idea?

There are so many SGs in creative fields, be it photography, art, fashion, writing, etc.
How about featuring their work for a limited time in a certain area for sale, and have the profits, or a percentage, go to charity organizations?

Girl could submit their work for evaluation, and if it meets certain requirements the girls could get some exposure, a little money for their time, and the rest goes to fight cancer or aids or puppy rescue or what have you.

I really like this idea. There are so many talented SG's on here and I think it would be great to feature their work, help them get a little more exposure and recognition.

If we do want to feature things like this, which isn't a bad idea, perhaps we should consider that the most practical way to make a fuss over them is through specific feature writeups, a la the Newswire's Community Diary articles.

Seriously. The whole point of these changes was to eliminate some of the negative aspects of MR and other democratic features on the site.

All SG members are equal, but some members are more equal than others.
