As well all know, iCreate has been slow lately. Not dead, but slow. Why don't we brainstorm a bunch of ideas to make the site more active? Just put your ideas in a list, feel free to expand on yours or other iCreator's ideas!
More contests (Like every week or two) More newsletters with all the juicy Sims and iCreate gossip Song of the Week Poster of the Week Bi-weekly debates Movie of the Week Incentives (EX: Every 200 posts, the poster gets $1000, every 400 posts, the user gets $1500 and a personalized rank, and every 1000 posts, the users gets $2500 and a free colored name + customized rank)
What are your ideas? We're all creative Simmers, we can come up with some cool stuff!

Those are some really good ideas Kyle! Thanks for posting this. This is what I'd like to add:
-Monthly Trivia Contests (We could hold these in the c-box and Abattista, SimCrazed or myself could take turns asking trivia questions about Sims 1/2/3.) -Adding New Skins (Just to keep the already amazing iCreate even more fresh and exciting)

These are some good ideas, guys! I think the trivia event sounds good! SimCrazed, Stella, and I have been meaning to hold a Youtube Night and a Trivia night soon, we'll get the date out as soon as possible.

I was thinking of making a post like this I'm glad I didn't . Anyway, I think a good way to make the site more exciting is even though some people already have them (like Onnie and myself) we could all have blogs or threads saying what's going on in our Sims 1/2/3 games where we post pictures of them, say how they are doing, and list their traits/ personality points, etc. I think that that would be fun and keep us interested in our games. I know this isn't really a good idea since whe sorta already do this, but it's all I can think of right now.
