OK. Here's the list of all suggestions and ideas. Phew!
Suggested Website Stuff
Here's Chisa's list she posted awhile back: - News/Updates - I think for now, we've decided that we will do a big update to the site every month, and put news in when needed - Links + Resources page - Articles (monthly?) - Member Profiles (separated into groups? What kind of groups?) - Featured Member of the month - Archive of past contest entries
Here's some things we've added since then (and made more specific): -Hall of Fame for contest winners -Jobs for people who want to do something specific, need people to organize links, people to be in charge of the separate portfolio pages, and lots of people to write/illustrate!! -Style of site should include photos and artwork -Include non-gaians! -Start with basic tutorials and articles -Contest to name the site!! -Start making an outline for the first release of the site (set for January, I think that's a great time to aim for) -Article suggestions: customer interaction, going freelance, case study of a full project, personal experiences studying, stupid client quotes , reviews on GD programs, thoughts on the current wages for jobs in that area... -Restrictions on the size of all pictures and thumbnails, to make it nice and uniform throughout. -Get a head start on collecting profiles... answer these sorts of questions: Name, age, location, area of expertise, skills, do you do commissions (real money/gaian gold), 3 thumbnails of examples (linking to the real thing), links to website(s) + some kind of picture representing you, whether its a screenshot of your gaia avatar, a photo, a self portrait, a photo of a monkey you think resembles you, whatever.. (I just had to directly quote that, that was great)
People Who Have Offered to Help (and with what) Silver and Chisa: editors, updates, organization Raine Dragon: general help Suubi: coding, can host also Narrtin: web app coding
We need more people to be involved... so here are the questions to answer if you'd like to help! Just post your answers right here in this thread. a) Your area(s) of expertise b) What kind of background you have in that area c) How you think you could use that to contribute
Thanks everyone! Keep those ideas comin'!
