Forking's always fun. When I interned at Aviary the forked content was sometimes the most interesting.
A word of warning, gleaned from Aviary's eventual failure in that market: forking has a tendency to reduce somebody's feed to a bunch of images that look almost exactly the same. The difference being, lots of the forks will be shoddier and lower-quality than the original. It can make a feed far less engaging in far less time. You can fix that by attaching all forked projects together in a feed, but then you're back to square one: not enough original content hitting a user's feed.
