I would really like you to add an alphabetical sort (alphabetical by prompt), and/or a search function for prompts. Sometimes I remember a prompt that I didn't claim, and it can take a long time to find it again.

I really like having so many prompts, though I'm going to ponder this before actually voting. The question about how to choose art for the landing page is especially worth thinking about.

I'm tempted to go for "finished art", however, if you do that, people should be able to designate a piece of art "finished" when they first upload it. My Stickleg, for instance, was finished in just under an hour, and it would be silly to have to upload it twice to designate it finished.

How often do people come back just to look at finished art? If that's a steady stream of traffic, I think a ticky box to designate a sketch finished would be a good thing in any case.

I agree with the tick box for a sketch to be designated finished, though would it still show up on the wall as well? My stuff is generally finished in the first half of SF, and then towards the end, they are all sketchy.

What would be nice is a watching option "Notify me if/when a finished artwork is loaded for this sketch"

I like your "notify" suggestion. A notification to the artist that someone has asked to be notified would be good too, to let a person know they should finish a particular piece!

Oh, I like that a lot! As Deirdre says below, too, it will help an artist know what to finish.

I've got a few ideas for prompt sorting I'd like to explore. You can always use ctrl-f to find text on a page, too... I think that works on any browser.

I don't think as many people see the finished work, there are definitely fewer comments on them. A finished designation might be useful!

Oh, and one existing option for 'tagging' prompts is to comment on them without claiming them - they will show up on your artist page, then, and you can easily find them again.
