This group is nearly 1 year old. Nearly a full 12 months, nearly a full 365 days. So I was thinking . . . to honor such a special occassion, we will be featuring one member of the group every month.
The first time around, it will be completely random. I will have the links to everyone's homepage, click one, and see which one I end up on. I myself, however, will never be featured. Why? Well, doesn't it seem odd for a founder to be featuring themself? That and that Founder position will probably never change, whereas the number of members can go anywhere from a small handful to dozens in just a matter of months.
In addition, one year must pass before a member can be chosen again. It wouldn't be fair if for three months straight the same member was featured for all to see.
So as I said before, the first time around, it's random. Next time however, there will be a scale on which each person will be judged.
Number of contributions, and not just to get their work more out there (example: Does this really relate to the group's focus or is it just a way of getting more views?)
How often they make other contributions (suggestions for group, suggestions for group favs, etc.)
Willingness to contribute (if someone asks to add a piece, will every one out of five be accepted or will all of them be accepted?)
Interactions (Is this person a total dirtbag? Does everyone love them FOR THEIR PERSONALITY AND NOT JUST THEIR ART, etc.)
SUGGESTIONS FROM OTHERS (Yes, I may go around asking a few people who they think should be featured and why, but I won't play 20 Questions with anyone)
Keep in mind that I will not be going based purely on my thoughts and feelings of a person. I want to get this established so I'm not accused of choosing someone, "cuz uv none dem 4evur!"
So how's that sound? And for next month's feature . . . any early suggestions?
