Pick one of your Project images as your banner
Could be a cover image or an additional image. (Update images not allowed). These would already be approved during the submition of a project so you would not have to worry about people misusing this feature.

An idea to change the order of projects on the homepage every week. To give every project a fair chance.
My suggestion is to change the order of the projects on the homepage every week. Randomly. Perhaps it is fair to do this with the ideas that have obtained 100 supporters. Those that are on top get so many votes within a very short time. I think that they will now also reach 10K within weeks. If you would change it weekly or within two weeks ... maybe it helps to decrease the amount of 10K projects in a short time.
I also get the impression that only projects that have been built digitally get the most votes. Other projects…

Add the option to link your Bricklink account in your profile
A user's page already has places to put links to one's youtube, flickr, et cetera. I think Bricklink, though not as popular as those other websites, would be a good addition to this because its features are specifically made to be able to showcase Lego MOCs in great detail. It could also be a good way to promote the website.

Improved Visibility and UI on Homepage
It’s currently too difficult to find or discover things of a particular interest on the IDEAS website. Along with better use of filters, I recommend a different homepage UI of stacked containers with horizontal scrolling, similar to what you see in most media layouts (ie Netflix) instead of the endless, seemingly random vertical scroll and buried navigational options. It’s perfectly fine to have staff picks and most popular at the top (or listed under a Contests section) because you want people to have a good first impression of the website and IDEAS platform, but then just under that box there…

Restrict the voting process, Introduction of voting limits
In the first and second review period, an incredible number of projects made it into the review.
The reason for this is an unlimited possibility of voting. Some accounts shows more than 2.000 votes per year.To avoid this:- Limit the number of votes to 150 per year or 50 review period. (max 300/year or 100/period)
- Re-introduction of the poll before supporting a project.

View Previous Names
Over the time that LEGO fanatics have had there account they have probably changed their profile name at least once, but one problem if you change your name nobody knows how to find you or who that person is. So we should be connected to our previous names so people can still search our old names up and find our new name. 😀

View a list of everyone that supported your build
It’s depressing when you want to thank the people that supported you along the way... and you don’t know exactly who all did support you. So, we should have it so when you support a build you join a list with all of the other supporters on that build.

Additional filter & view options
Please add the following quality of life improvements:
1) filter to show only the NEW ideas since my last visit.
2) instead of the current 0 or 1000 as smallest supported filter options, allow us to filter in numbers between. Example by the 50 or 100 / 200 supporters and so on.
3) filter and icon that shows the ideas you are already supporting

Do a yearly second chance review
Every year, as “Christmas gift” to the community, the board could re-evaluate all the product ideas that were not given the green light for production during the year’s review periods. Similar to the 10th anniversary contest, but on an annual basis. (The special anniversary reviews could still happen by reaching farther back into your archives.) Lots of times, let’s be honest, reviews can sometimes flop. This can allow some of the “best” projects of the year to get a second chance! I’d be quite a bit of work, but I’m sure the community will appreciate it!

Pinning your submissions at your profile page.
A main Idea submission may not be noticed by people who visit the profile site because the person has participated in many Activities and Constests afterwards. It would be great to have the possibility to chose what people see at the beginning of your profile page, for example through pinning a post like in Twitter.

Tailor Ideas Sets Viewed Based On Users' Interest
Users would be able to create certain tags for themselves in their Profile Page based on things that they're interested in. Users would then receive a notification each time a project is posted with that tag.

Standardize the size of pictures for Contest and Product Ideas
When posting entries for the contests I always need to cut the size of the picture, with the result that sometimes I need to do new renders of my build.
With Product Ideas I don't have any issue, the format 4:3 works perfectly.
Is it possible to have a standard size for both?2 votes -
Allow editing an entry you have posted for say 12hrs.
The images I posted look rough on my recent Dream Holiday entry "Cow Dreams", but they were fine before I uploaded them. I'd like to try uploading again but I don't have that option. Once they have been approved that's fair enough and I understand I have to accept it.

Contest entry community review
I have a idea I would like to pitch. What if there was a segment between expert review and crowd vote where we the LEGO IDEAS Community, would take a look at the entries you have selected and make sure there aren't any flaws (custom colors, custom parts, old contest entries,etc) that slipped past the LEGO IDEAS review team and if so, point them out in a small section on the side for reporting problems which will be sent to the team to examine and determine what to do with the entry.

5 New rules for Lego Ideas
A/ Reduce time limit to 1 year (3rd party IP-projects) & 1,5 year (no IP)
B/ Reduce limits for parts to 1500 parts (3rd IP-projects) & 2000 parts (no IP)
C/ each project submission created with LDD/stud.io need to give exact part count for proof.
D/ Reduce vote limit to 5000 votes only for small sets : less then 500 parts, and without 3rd IP) -> This would possibly be the 3rd approved Lego Ideas set per review.E/ After each review results, permit a temporary vote for all non selected Ideas to go to the next review. Only one…

Separate Product Ideas from Contest Entries in profile page.
Often I enter in other builders' profiles to check their builds. Would be great to have Product Ideas right away on top, not mixed with contest entries and activities. The filter doesn't help much in that way.
Otherwise you could let the builder to personalize his own page.15 votes -
Consider Staff pick of the day or pick of the week
Staff picks appear to get great attention due to their visibility and hence help the ideas creator to increase votes.
Maybe an idea would be to give the staff pick a time limit e.g. pick of the day and show for one day or pick of the week for one week, and then select different ideas projects as staff picks.3 votes
