The explore feature allows users to find projects or studios that they might be interested in.

Tag
On the 27th of September 2013 [1] an update was made that added the option to search for a project by its tag. Before this was added some people campaigned for this feature because it could give more of a use to tags.[2]
Studio Search
Adjacent to the "Projects" button, there is a button labeled "Studios" which, when clicked, will change the search for projects or users to a search for studios. The same rules apply considering the Tag, Art, Animations filters etc. You will just be searching for studios under those tags instead of projects.
Sort By Filter
Below is an image showing the Sort By drop down box. In order to sort your results by time periods, simply click the button next to "Sort by:" and another option should appear (in this case, it is "This month"). By clicking "This month" all the projects from this month will appear, the same rule applies for "This week" except only projects or studios created this week shall appear.
Sorts
The lists can be sorted by statistic and filtered by date.

Date
