Twitter Information + Content Nominations

Link Thread Closed
This thread is your information hub for the SMW Central Twitter account, where you can find out how to nominate content to be showcased on the account, as well as provide feedback and ideas. After all, you are our followers, and we want to tweet information/content that's interesting to you!

If you're not already following our Twitter account, you can find it here: @smwcentral!

We'll be tweeting about news and events on SMW Central, content created by the userbase (see next section), when our Twitch Streamers go live on our Twitch channel, and more. If there's something else you would like to see, feel free to suggest it.



Content Showcase

Twitter gives us a great platform to showcase user-created content on SMW Central. If you want to see something showcased, here's how you can nominate it:

You are free to nominate your own or anyone else's content to be showcased on our Twitter, as long as it is accepted in one of SMW Central's hack and resource sections or is a WIP project with a thread somewhere on the forums. Nominated contest must be suitable for all audiences. If you are nominating someone else's WIP project, we will obtain permission from the author before showcasing it.

The amount of content submitted to use to feature can vary over time, so it may not always be possible to feature everything nominated.

We aim to keep our Twitter active, so if we are in a position where we have no user content nominated, we will find content ourselves.

To nominate content, please post a link to it in a reply to this thread, with a brief explanation as to why you would like to see it showcased.

If you have any questions on how to nominate content to be showcased, please do not hesitate to ask!



Previously Showcased Content

I nominate WhiteYoshiEgg's parallax scroll which he showcased here:

https://www.smwcentral.net/?p=viewthread&t=81468&page=16&pid=1528549#p1528549

Brief explanation: This thing is beautiful and I guess it was a lot of work. I can't even imagine how it is possible to create this stuff.
By "WIP project", we mean the whole project in general, not just one screenshot/part of it. We can probably work on showcasing the hack in general, if that's what you're after in instead?
I have a question, can you send your levels or music from competitors such as: CLDC, VLDC, KLDC or Super Famicompo?

Not really, unless it's something submitted to the hack/music section etc. Not to say contest entries aren't good, but once they're approved in a section we can safely tweet them out knowing they're not full of issues etc. With music, as I mention, if it's in the section and approved, then sure.

e: just an after thought about ongoing contests too - we definitely don't want to be showing off entries from those because of anonymity to judges.
Due to a lack of content nominations, I've gone and found some content to showcase. DasFueller, I took your nomination of WYE's parallax scrolling as showcasing the WIP hack. I've varied each section to showcase content from, including some YI/SM64 stuff too.

(A list of content showcased/being/to be showcased is in the first post in a collapse tag, and I'll keep this up to date so you can see what's coming up or has already recently been done before nominating stuff)
cool background !
While I appreciate you like my post layout (I presume that's what you mean?), it's not relevant to this thread. Please only post here if it's relating to Twitter Feedback/Content Nominations.

(Same rule applies for every thread: staying on topic - see rule B2)
For what it's worth, Alex is now our Twitter Guru, and not myself - so you should contact them for questions and stuff :D
Twitter suggestion - when you tweet out "SMW Central is hosting (streamer)" it links to the SMW Central Twitch Page. I feel like it would be far more courteous to the twitch streamer's page instead. IMO, its a bad look.

Thanks for your suggestion. We are working on a fix, but before that we need to setup some things in the background to make the necessary changes.
