What is the Featured Artist on the front page?

The Featured Artist (formerly Artist of the Day) programme helps to highlight a random artist each day.

The pool of eligible site members consists of site members who have earned or purchased Featured Artist Tokens. Each night at midnight UTC, the system automatically selects a random site member from this pool; there is no moderator or administrative involvement in the selection process.

There are checks and balances in effect in the selection process. These serve to ensure the same person isn't chosen multiple times in a row, and that the longer someone is waiting to be chosen, the higher their chances are of being chosen.
