Gomme, when I mentioned 'Buying/Selling' I meant advice on the cameras to buy etc, not so much selling prints. Tom, that is a problem that could arise and good for mentioning it. With competitions running and users posting their photographs for display, I am sure it would remain active.

I think a trial run would be most suited as someone mentioned previously.

You've just got to remember who you're aiming at. Yes, you may be intrigued in photography, but other users may not be, you talk about the competition, yet it doesn't always work like that, people may lose intrest, etc.
A trial would be best, but not with a forum, with the prefixes.

I hate the idea of prefixs. It just mixs it in with other peoples work such as Art, and we would be fighting to keep threads above others.

A sub-forum may be suitable... we just need to wait to hear from staff.

It could be a good idea, but I agree with Invent, there are other things that deserve a (sub-)forum, a lot more than this. That said, there is also some that don't.

Darren, I think you could just post in technology or pictures to be honest. I also think your being kind of... "elitist" if you will. How you say "ranging from 'snaps' to professional images".

That said, I think it should continue to be posted in the tech forum.

You speak for yourself, it can go in other graphics where they've gone for many a' year.

I would hate prefix's for something like this, that wouldn't work good. It's good for something like Habbo [UK], [CA], crap like that.. but not mixing forums.

I'm 100% for this idea, and would use it.

Thanks for the support Caleb :)

I have not used the feedback forum before, so do we wait to hear back from a member of staff?

Yes.

Usually they will discuss it in here, then I'm guessing nvr will decide whether to or not.

Hey,

The feedback does indeed look pretty good, which makes it something we would look into. However I'll say the same thing I did to the Anime and Manga people - show us it would be used. I'm looking at the Other Pictures forum and seeing threads since 8/22 on the first page, not at all fighting to stay on top. So I don't really see that even if there were a lot of other photo threads that there are that many other types of pictures that it would be fighting with.

I wouldn't be against renaming the forum Photography and Other Pictures (No Alterations) but until I'm proved wrong I don't believe a subforum or standalone forum is merited :)

Dissapointed if anything. I have seen plenty of threads regarding photography, and a number of users commenting in my threads.

Here are links to the ones I can find:

I have gone down to June. 33 threads of the ones that the keyterm 'photography' appears within. The amount of users on these forums who do not make threads however post within the threads is getting bigger and bigger. If competitions were run by users such as myself, and a 'base' of users was created (verymuch like certain users post in the technology forums) then I believe it would grow into a larger focus on these forums.

How can you say there is no interest. I know there will be lots of replies to this post from users supporting the idea.

I support this idea because I like looking through photos
