This thread is for any good ideas on how to get new members here.
I got one, most of us should go to nintendo.com, sign up in their forums and put ads and spread the word about our site to bring them over here.

E-mail Nintendo magazine and ask them to put the link to this site in the magazine, I mean a lot of people read nintendo mags.

I'm a member on the Nintedo forum too and you can't advertise. You can't even post links unless they're from the offical Nintendo site. I think we should make a flash to spread the word
Also do you see those affilates at the bottom of the page? All of the Wii top lists clikc and vote for Wii Together. A lot of people look at those and the more votes the site gets the higher it moves up

here's another idea.http://newgrounds.com/bbs/topic.php?id=580961 If we have a talented group of flash artists here we can make a flash for it. It can have Wii Togeher in it or in teh description. Even if it doesn't win the cash(which I doubt it will) it will be in the collection and maybe even front page. If we do win maybe albert coulduse the money to make Wii Together better.

Well, I dont mean to be an annoying thorn in your side, but we dont want to go around advertising the site willy-nilly. It could give this place a bad reputation which would cause us more harm. The flash idea, I've been planning on doing in the future sometime once I get the program, but just like anything else you do, you need Albert's approval.
I remember someone posted somthing on YouTube and put the website on the end and that made albert angry because it was done without permission.
There is one suggestion that I have for any talented photoshop users or good artists. This month's art contest on newgrounds involves Video game characters in Zombie forms. If you make a really good picture, ask albert if it's alright to put the website name on the picture so that when you post it, people might come here interested about the site.

Well anyway, i agree, you can't go around advertizing forums or constantly IM ppl saying "zomg d00d, sign up hear!" (I get alot of those) because that makes people not want to come, or it brings annoying people that talk like "zomg d00d" so.. yeah..

Right now I don't have any ideas on how to get some new people like me here. I'll just watch to see what happens.

You're more than welcome to do that, but get Albert's approval first. Its his site after all. I'm kinda pissed that I dont have flash yet, I was supposed to by now, but I dont. I would have enjoyed doing a Halloween flash, but looks like I'm missing out. I better not miss out on Christmas or I'll be really pissed.

And if not hard, just time consuming. Also I don't want you guys to get it wrong. I like to hear about your ideas for advertising the site before you do them because I just don't want the site to be tied with a bad image. But other than that i'm glad to have you guys advertise the site. I'll be trying to make a decent flash short in support of the Wii soon.
