So you've made something cool, and now your want to show it off to the world! Whoa, slow down there hot shot. The world isn't quite ready for you yet. In order for you to successfully promote your stuff, you need a few things first. Follow the below guide to make the best thread anyone has ever seen!
1. Include a picture of your creative work
Making a thread for your creation is all good and well. But if you want people to actually give a crap, give them some eye candy!
2. Write a description
They say a picture is worth a thousand words. No, that doesn't mean you have to write a thousand word description to go along with your picture. But you should write something interesting about it. How did you come up with the idea? Why did you make it? What is it, exactly? Answer these, and come up with some of your own.
3. Post only once
Do not repost your creation, even if it's in a different section. This is considered spam. Doing so will result in the duplicate threads being deleted, and the original one will be locked.
4. Offer positive comments and constructive criticism
No one likes their work being criticized. Please only post positive comments and constructive criticism. Any hateful or bashful comments will be deleted, and the poster will receive disciplinary action as decided by the OMB moderation team.
5. Pay attention!
Don't just make your thread and leave it- pay attention to it! Answer any questions someone may have or include additional information. No will want to stick around if you're just looking for free promotion. They want to have an actual conversation with you. And, you of course want to enjoy the praise while it lasts!
That's about it. Thanks for taking the time to read the Creative Corner Guidelines!
