"How do you mean the same for internet sites?" Well, when you want to favourite a site that you like or want to look at later you press the favourite button, and from that you can organise your favourites websites into folders and sub-folders. I was just wondering if we could do the same on CO&K.
"People may start lists for projects that would be good gift ideas, in that case they wouldn't be favorites of that member but of someone else." But when there weren't lists on CO&K I favourited projects that I thought would be good gift ideas.
But now that there are lists I won't be using CO&K favourites anymore as I don't find there is a need for them.
I do understand it would be hard to integrate them both though.
Maybe on the projects, you could just have a little blank star and when you click on it it turns gold, as counts as a favourites 'vote'- because then it would just be an extra little thing to click on, and you wouldn't have to have the whole page refresh.
"Someone could make a list of projects they didn't like and then it wouldn't make sense for us to feature those projects.". True but people could just as easily 'favourite' a project by mistake, and both of those would occur extremely rarely and would hardly affecting the Top 20 results.
I would just really like it if favouriting on CO&K was the same as 'favouriting' for interent sites.
I understand though if you guys want to keep it how it is, but I just wanna argue my point 
"I'd like to be able to edit my lists. Like remove things from them."-I didn't realise we couldn't remove projects from lists, I really want that as well
"What if the project wasn't a favorite but you wanted to put it in a list? I think people might get annoyed if it automatically went in to their favorites. What does everyone else think?" Yeah that is true.
Favourites on CO&K are almost pointless though, I don't see any need for them if we have lists. Coz you can categorise any project into a list. You could have lists like "miscellaneous" or "pretty things".
Then the popularity of one's project could be measured by counting how many people ahve added it to their list(which is essentially "favouriting").
No probs, thankyou 
hey,welcome back!
My profile picture isn't working, it's showing my old one(of the fridge)instead of my new cat one.
Can you fix it Crafterella?
"Hmm we hadn't thought about doing mail notifications for adding to lists, do you think it would be useful or do you think it might get annoying if you start receiving a lot of emails? "
Couldn't a project just automatically go to your favourites if you put it in a list?
Because then you get a favourites email notification and your project can be in the running for "most popular projects".
"I dont really know how you would combine the 2 though." You could just have folders like you do when you favouorite/bookmark websites. Then you don't need to worry about listing and favouriting. All you would do is click "favourite" and then a box or something could come up and you select which folder/folders you want to put it into.
If Favourites are being used a way to measure how popular a project is then aren't Lists interfering with that idea?
Because,if a person adds a project to their "To make" list then they most likely aren't going to 'favourite' it as well; meaning that the creator of the project doesn't know how much people are enjoying their project.
What does everyone think on this topic?
Just a thought: Couldn't lists and favourites be integrated together, much like the 'favourites' people use to bookmark internet sites. Then, a project could still be favourited but at the same time organised and put in a folder. This would also mean that you could have a folder within a folder, which would keep things even more organised.
well it's winter over here in australia but I guess I should still make some sort fo goal, preferably one that can be accomplished indoors!
got one......This winter I want to learn to touchtype. It would amke my assignments so much quicker to do.
hi everyone! I'm trying to remember why I planned to have a 2 week break in the first place, probably because of lots of schoolwork. I just completely forgot about CO&K and I hadn't been doing any crafting either but I'm starting to get back into the swing of things: I've been cooking a fair bit recently, started up my own blog and am planning on writing another Snippets article.
Wow queenie, your dog grooming endeavour is really coming together! Hope you get lots of good things you can use for it on your b'day.
Well I'm off to write another blog post and see what awesome projects I've missed out on CO&K.
wow,haven't been on CO&K in a while. My two week absence turned into 2+ months!
Nice to see familiar faces once again.
yeah it does. They have their own kind of logo/emblem as well, so that could be incorporated into things.
I'm considering entering a jonas brothers competition where you have to make something and send in a picture but I really need some help coming up with ideas. Even if you don't like the jonas brother's I'd really appreciate your help, I need something unique but I don't want it to be too fiddly to make as I only have a couple of week lefts until the competition ends.
Ideas so far:
shrink plastic necklace
home-made badges
scrapbooking mini album
stencilled t-hirt
