I have requested that a new forum for graphics and design but my original post didn't really get much of a reply in the 'site bugs' forum SMV has said if it gets more support it will be considered, so i am posting this here in the hope that there are members out there that would like a new graphics and design forum.

Please post if you would like to see this forum created or if you have anyother ideas.

Below is my original post detailling what i would see as going on in the new forum.

"i'm here to request that you start a graphics and design forum for people to showcase examples of their images, videos, animations and websites they do outside of the forums.

I relise that a thread could be started but often a thread gets lost in the everyday dribble, and a forum just for these would i feel be the best way.

I haven't asked many other people about this but there a forum for creative writing so i figure a similar one could be started for this."

thanks for you support.

Pink and white are a horrible combination. Same goes for SR's fisherprice blue and yellow awfulness too.

Fair enough!

It's also nice to have got rid of the girlie pink 'sticky' thread.

The point was more to create somewhere that people can post work that they do outside of the forums .

Posting it in the 'web design forum' feels a bit odd as it has quite a hi turn over of threads about technical issues and doesn't really seem the right place.

General chat has a stupid amount of spammers and tards that would just ruin every thread.

Life and everything has more serious new related or peoples views on world issues and the 3d animation thread is a bit out of place.

Creative writing wasn't a forum i posted in before but i do read alot of the work, most of the people in there give good critisim and help to eachother improve.

There wern't really enough people saying that they would like a design forum to justify another forum being created and the renaming of creative writing is by far the best option, rather than another forum that gets a few posts a day.

If nothing else i got pretty much what i wanted and i think we'll all agree thats whats important. :D

That was kind of the point of my post - in that it was nondeterminate. I haven't done one of those for ages. Then two in a row - ooh, I quite like that!

Hmmm...
Doesn't really work for me. I would suggest that if your post is related to Web design then this is still the forum to put it in!

Is it just me or was this all a complete waste of time ???

Bwhahahaha. You mean you've changed the Creative writing forums display string, and posted a sticky message.

You can't fool me. ;)
