Ok, so now I'm seeing some BC projects marked as 'Featured'. What does that mean? Apologize in advance if there's something in a thread - looked around and didn't see anything.

I assume they paid extra to be at the top of project page with the word "featured". Mind you I'm assuming. I have nothing to base this on other than past experience in marketing & sales. LOL

I had the same assumption. It was ok when there were a couple, but the current number is annoying to have to scroll through each time. It is a minor bother, I guess I should be glad that they value us to pay extra.

On my screens I only see projects 6 at a time - I'd be miffed as projects 7-10 if they paid for placement and didn't show at first glance. May be time to have a special page and featured within KS categories.

That's a great idea mdtommyd. I think I'll drop a line to Mark with a few of the suggestions I've seen in comments over the last week. :D

I am so glad to see more active discussion in the forums and to have someone like you, Tasha, who is willing to run with ideas and do the leg work. Thank you.

Thanks. This club has been fun for me. It's easy enough to collect ideas and send a single email so we aren't overwhelming the founders. :mrgreen:

I sent some ideas to the admin email. Either I'll let you know what I hear or you'll see changes/answers around here.

Hi all,

Yes, we've actually been wanting to change the layout of the projects to separate featured projects on one page and have another page for newly listed projects. Keep you eyes out for that as we hope to implement it soon.
