Lovely night, no?

I'm in a bit of a pickle regarding LinkedIn, and I'm not sure what the best solution is.

The most impressive and job-relevant details about me are the projects I've worked on and skills I used therein. Meanwhile, my actual "experience" section of jobs I've held are just a random mishmash of "worked here for money"s that you'd expect from a recent graduate. For the purpose of job-hunting, I would really prefer it if I could somehow get my most important stuff to pop up first.

Some options I've considered:
1. If there's some way LinkedIn would let me move profile sections around so I could display projects first, that would be best. Not sure if this is possible though, everything I've read about moving sections is only about moving entries within a section.
2. List my projects as "Experience" instead of projects, and maybe remove my unimportant positions all-together
3. Make my summary section "My projects are the most relevant", or the like

edit: Option #1 apparently used to be available but is "temporarily unavailable" (and has been for months)
