Posts Eligible to be Considered for the Front Page

Just a reminder that when you post a piece to any of the main Forums other than the Workshop Forum, editors will consider that piece eligible to be published to the Front Page as is. If you don’t think the piece is quite finished, you expect to edit it later, or you simply don't ever want it posted to the FP, please post it to the Workshop Forum. That will ensure it is not prematurely selected for the Front Page. Once you have finished it, you can move it to a main forum, using the "thread tools" function in the upper right of your thread. Once a piece has been scheduled to be published on the Front Page, and you later edit the piece, it becomes a problem for the editor to go back and alter the original Front Page scheduled post. Thank you.

Hello Raymond, I wanted to know what is the criteria for a post to be eligible to be featured on the front page?

Any piece posted by an OAF member to any of our main forums (except the Workshop Forum or minor discussion forums) is eligible to be considered for the Front Page.

How's about the "Journal" page?

I've got many poems there that I'm currently working on, some with 10+ or more versions/revisions.

I'm doing it so I can have quick access to all versions, also as an online backup in a worst-case scenario.

Not ready to submit/post on main forum yet, and not actually looking for feedback.

I doubt that editors will look in the Journal Forum for Front Page possibilities, unless it's something really unique. I certainly don't. It would be too hard to build a FP post with a journal. The editors have their hands full with the main forums. If you wanted to make sure, you could just put a heading on your journal entries "Do Not Post to the FP" or something like that.
