Catwalk

Everyone who is a member of Stardoll has heard of, and probably participated in the Catwalk competition at some point in time. The idea is simple: you save your own or someone else's doll in your album and the outfit should be entered. People have three outfits to choose from, and they choose their favorite. The person who gets the most votes wins.

Pros:
  • It's actually pretty fun. I'll go on sometimes and vote for different outfits, even if I've already gotten all of my starcoins for the day.
  • The winner gets a lot of fame from it. Not lasting fame, or fame on the covergirl scale, but still, you get lots of suite visits and guestbook comments.
  • People could offer constructive criticism about the outfits. I doubt that anyone does, but still, it's a nice idea.
Cons:
  • Most of the outfits honestly aren't brilliant...
  • I don't think everyone gets entered! How many times have you entered, only to have no one tell you that they've seen you. Not that this isn't understandable. A lot of people enter, even if they don't realize it.
  • With the fame comes the spam.
Possible Improvements:
  • A comments section would be nice. I like the idea of being able to contact who you voted for from that page and complement the outfit or offer constructive criticism.
  • Stardoll needs to show everyone, or at least inform them that they appeared on the Catwalk.
