# Rubbish
getting on the frontpage has nothing to do with who you are. It just has to do with how funny your picture is and who happens to be moderating at the time.

As for getting into the newsletter - I personally have managed a couple of times but have failed far more often.

You should be making stuff for the love of it - getting in the newsletter or frontpage is just a bonus. It's nice when it happens, but if you make it your sole reason for doing stuff, then you are really missing the point.

# I agree with this
just remember, how many submissions there will be, both to this board for the FP's and mails to the newsletter.

We've all had many rejections. So be it. Life is like that.

# Exactly
your post there was number 2873697.

Admittedly only a percentage of those posts have pictures, but it's still impossible for them all to be put onto the front page.

as long as I find what I do funny/interesting, then I don't overly care. Of course, FP's are appreciated, especially when they garner lots of responses.

But hey, with the member number rising, it will become more and more difficult.

# Then
you have something that you made and you have learned new skills in the process. What more do you want?

Instead of moaning about it, why not try making something even better for next time?
