Drop Boxes
When running a challenge or making a themed collection collaboration is difficult to manage. It would be great if we could create drop boxes - a type of playlist/collection that is open to the community so they can drop creations into it. You could also have Private Drop boxes for collaboration projects.
For example
You run a weekly animation challenge. At the moment people use tags to mark up their creations or they send them as links to the host of the challenge. With a drop box they just post them to the challenge Drop box and the host can access them from there - all in one place, no chance of missing them in your notifications, no chance of people tagging up their creations wrong so you miss them.
Example 2
You are auditioning people for a game project. You create a Drop Box so people can put their audition piece in it for the project manager to see.
Example 3
You want to make a collection of the best ever thingamebobs. Open up a Drop Box and ask the community to help you find the best thingamebobs and post them there. You can then vet these to make your collection.
Example 4
Game collaboration. Create a Private Drop Box for your team so they can drop completed assets, scenes into it. Only your team members have access.

Nice. This would work really well with my Collaboration Corner idea...

ABSOLUTELY! At DreamsFest it’s a real pain to manage collections for collaboration. 30 is a very small limit to have for collaborators. So a Dropbox will bypass that. Great idea, LadyLex! Ps we love everything you do for the community.
