The Featured Member is a Main Street Featured in which an outstanding member of Eltown is featured each month.
This feature is maintained by the Featured Member Bosses.
If you are interested in having your house featured on Main Street, you should keep in mind that there are rules/guidelines that will make your House more appealing for the Featured Member Bosses. Your house will more likely be chosen if you take the following into account:
1) Unique and creative
The house must be unique and creative. This means that they'll feature no horribly long surveys. Also unoriginal content (quotes and lyrics) would be there only to bolster the overall feel of the house. This means that the houses should say something meaningful, rather than random babble. (Unless the babble is particularly entertaining, as occasionally happens.)
2) Readable and organized
While the English on the houses doesn't need to be perfect it should be easy to read. With capital letters and punctuation every once in a while. This means no netspeak! If long, it should be broken up in a way that makes it presentable and easy to read, not just be one huge endless paragraph.
3) Proper display of images
Featured houses generally should not have more than the two allotted pictures in their slots and no overly large pictures in their description. And of course, the contents of the house must follow the Uploading Art Rules
4) Active member
Whoever is featured should be an active member of the community. Either a recognised poster from the forums, someone who has created their own forum, or is a listed member of Wiki pages. Being an active member of the community is highly appreciated!
5) Size
Member should fit reasonably well in a glass museum display jar ;)
Untouchable Members
The Featured Member Bosses are well aware that some Elftowners wish to keep their privacy and wouldn't like their house to be featured on Main Street. If this is the case for you, please contact Featured Member Boss [wicked fae mage] through a private message, or leave a comment on this page. A private note will be added to your house so that it won't be chosen as a Featured Member.
Should you ever decide that you want to be eligible again, please request that the note be removed.

Nominating someone doesn't mean he/she will automatically become a Featured Member:
All houses are subjected to our [#Criteria].
