I think that is a good idea. Looking at the MAL forum right now, it appears that all of the posts on the first page are fan-based as opposed to artist-based. To me, this implies that splitting the forum in the way you mention would allow the discussion of the arts to fall into the two categories very well.

I think its worth trying that aay and see how it goes.

Sorry for not responding to this thread sooner, I wasn't intentionally ignoring it. :tongue: I see what you mean about how composition, equipment, darkroom techniques and that kind of thing doesn't really seem to fit in with the existing Arts forum. Photography definitely has a technical side to it. But the same argument could be made for most forms of art... composition is a factor with any visual medium, equipment can include musical instruments, paints and brushes, Sound Forge, Photoshop, even special pens and paper for the writers among us. It seems to me like the real distinction is between 'artists' and 'media', ie. creators of art and consumers of art. I think a better solution might be if we make Music Art & Literature the 'popular media' forum for reviews and interpretations and that kind of thing, and then make a subforum for artists themselves which focuses on the artistic process, sharing personal works and getting feedback, etc. Does that make any sense?




you mean sorta like the idea I proposed a few months ago, in this thread:

I tried to get Admin to call M,A&L "The Multimedia Forum" back when it was created.

I think a forum for Mass Media and a separate forum for Artists in in order.

Sub-forums = fail.

would you consider changing the name of the current main forum to something like "The Arts" and then having a few subforums ie: photography, painting and sculpture, music, literature? or something to that effect. :shrug: just an idea.

i agree we should have a photography forum.
when i first got into photography i did general searches
on the shroomery & could only find scattered posts here & there from the entire community forums.
it would have been nice to go to a dedicated forum...

40oz becarefull buying from those sites, I found a couple of them and after almost buying them, and talking to them on the phone, some of them dont come with a battery and then when you want to buy the battery its 119$ or some of them are coming from china and not directly from the site and it'll take 6 weeks. There are lil things that make up for its cheapness. However the xti is an excellent camera and I'm in the market for the same, the best bet in my professional opinion is just to look and wait and watch on ebay for a good deal, from someone who knows what they;re talking about ,. Make sure to get a shutter count when buyin camera's from ebay though.

http://www.preferredphoto.com/viewproduct.aspx?ID=9551812&l=Froogle

theres a cheaper on, I would just say 40 that you make sure you call em up and talk to em first, make sure they have it in stock and its not coming from china which takes 6 weeks to ship.

also check out some ebay action;

I'd also love to mod the photo forum if it ever happens.

So here's a question for our new Photography Forum:

What's the best camera to take to a concert, without it being obvious that you're there to take photos?

I have cameras on both of my cell phones which I might be able to carry in, but those aren't nearly as good as a professional camera.
