[update 06/01]
Added in another suggestion. Suggest a DD v7 by `Solitude12

This suggestion has to do with trying to find the right Gallery Moderator to suggest Daily Deviations to. As of right now, it isn't easy to find Gallery Moderators (GMs) if you don't know where to look or are new. It would be most helpful if there was a link somewhere (mainly on the Daily Deviation Page) to a list of Gallery Moderators. Whether it be a drop down menu or re-direct to a new page with a list.

Right now you can find the list over at #communityrelations !

=trezoid s dAUltra script has a "Suggest DDs" feature too (and if you want you can turn all other functions off)

I think the Suggest DDs feature doesn't exist because it'd so lower the bar in many people's eyes for suggesting a piece... it'd definitely mean a lot more notes for GMs. I think it'd require a huge increase of the team while they're just trying to keep the team as small as possible.
I admit, it'll definitely be helpful, but that could be a bad thing as well how about making the button just link to FAQ 18 so people still have to do it themselves as now, but are just told how to?
FAQ #18: Who selects the Daily Deviation and how is it chosen?

Finding the GMs on the DDs page would be good! I think it would also make sense to have them on the galleries page itself, where people browse art.

The visual is awesome!

Right now the link to the FAQ is limited since some GMs are covering two or more galleries. I do like this suggestion... and not just because my name is on it

thanks for the suggestions NNR. I appreciate them greatly!

Yes, there are a lot of things to consider indeed! Especially the work that would go into implementing. Not to mention the amount of notes that the GMs would no doubt get. With this suggestion, I'm just trying to open up possibilities for users who may not know where to go or even know how to suggest a DD. Some sort of link, button or redirect would be helpful I think :3.

Maybe have a link to #communityrelations even. So instead of a full drop down menu, just create a hyperlink to go to the staff list or *stafflist .

Again, thanks for the suggestions along with the compliment

Although as VS said there are scripts for it, I think that this could be a wonderful addition in general! Nice job!

I think it would be great to be implemented fully instead of just a script sense not a lot of people are aware of the script(s) and/or know how to install them

There's also *stafflist which maintains a full listing of each and every staff member paid or volunteer... There's FAQ #18: Who selects the Daily Deviation and how is it chosen? , AND if you use scripts for your Firefox or Chrome, there's a few helpful ones out there: Which GM are You v4 and Suggest DD v7 by `Solitude12

Could probably talk `electricjonny or perhaps `BoffinbraiN into making a script that would pull up the FAQ when you hovered over a button on the page, to show who does what.

KovoWolf In reply to VSConcepts [2011-06-01 00:55:58 +0000 UTC]

If they could implement the "Suggest a DD" into the deviations, that would be excellent because that would be just as good if not better. It would avoid them having to make a new feature/button just for a list which I know would be complicated.

VSConcepts In reply to KovoWolf [2011-06-01 00:59:02 +0000 UTC]

But the "Suggest DD" Script that exists already, shows you who the relevant GM is, so it's unlikely in the several years the script has existed, that they'll incorporate it to the UI of dA. Still, it's an idea I used to have too, so we'll see what they make of your v.s.

KovoWolf In reply to VSConcepts [2011-06-01 17:22:50 +0000 UTC]

I installed the new script and it errors on me. It doesn't bring up the GM because it says there was an error populating the list. *sad face*

I appreciate your feedback, thank you!
