At 960 likes, Davis mentioned competitions. I think that is a good idea for something I could do this year (instead of an opensource project that sponsors BFa). But I want to run some ideas first with you guys.
Current status on Facebook:
- Image of the day (from gallery)
- Tutorials (latest from official Youtube)
- Tip of the day (from the dev tips thread)
- Feature fix (from latest interesting bug fixes or tasks)
- Developer (important announcements here, like new downloads to test)
- Spanish & English support groups
- 1-4 posts a week
- 1-5 organic likes per week
- No ad investment (will ad a little for Feb)
Some new things we can do:
- Art theme Competition and prize
- Skill challenge Competition and prizes
- Speed model challenges at regular intervals through periodic online meetings
- Software Cover image competition
- Facebook Cover image competition
- Forum Praise Quotes
- Mentions elsewhere in the internet (from Publicity thread, news articles, other downloads)
- Addon Reviews/Tutorials
- More tutorials
Here are some prize ideas:
- Exclusive addon on the Blender market (which I can purchase for their download/talk to devs about giving their addon to be sponsored, etc)
- Paid for subscription for a month to CG/Blender Cookie for a period of time (one paid account I can subscribe to, give access for period of time, log in details change at the end of time period to lock winner out, for a time)
- Praise content on the Facebook Page and homepage of Bforartists.de with exclusive celebration on certain dates
- Banner or Gallery header of the website for a time
- Cover image used in upcoming release
- Exclusive Skype interview with X developer
And I have one question, do we have time to do like a 1 week competition for the cover art of the next release of BFA? I can invest in it and push it and try get some people involved.
