New Forum Suggestion --

Postby wolfblazer » Sun Dec 07, 2008 9:38 pm

I think that there should be a new forum especially for custom art.
The creativity forum is completely buzzing with these topics, and they are drowning out pretty much everything else in there. Unless there is a new forum made for people to post stories/poems.

I have to agree, art contests and custom art are drowning out the 'look what I made' threads, which is what the Creativity forum is really for. So basically if you don't offer art or prizes then your thread is pushed down off the front page and never seen again O.o

Yeah. That happened to mine. I was too busy to do extra customs and that so I left it at 'this is my arts' and it soon went down to about page 5 and probably still getting lower. Maybe the creativity could be split into 3 parts like the adoptables section. You know how there is CS adoptables, other adoptables and CS trades/adoptions? Ya? Creativity - Requests/contests, art, stories & poems.

Other than that, yeah I agree, no one can really have a peaceful art topic anymore.

I lost my 2 threads altogether. I should probably find them and subscribe to them lol, I hope my posting history goes back far enough to find my main one else I'll have to remake it which just adds clutter X.x

Bumping back to the front page because this is a good idea imo.

That happened to me too. I couldn't be bothered to go back past the 15 pages it could be hiding on, so I made a new one. The old one was cluttered with requests anyway, and a couple of arguments and my old drawing technique which really sucked.

All you have to do to find your own posts is go to "search" tab, type your own name under Author and select creativity category.

Yes, but then you are the only one who will be able to find it. xD

I can't wait for new categories. There's been quite a few things I've been wanting to post but don't know where to put them for example:

-The thread requesting help on monitor color settings, where would that go?
Suggestions/Problems/Polls are for site problems, but nothing like a 'general help section' so I stuck it in general.

-Been meaning to make a thread asking where or how users typically name thier CS pets. Where would that go?
The CS section is for displaying your pets. General is general chatter, but could be used to discuss the site in general? Or would that go in Problems/Suggestions/Polls as that's where we normally discuss the site?

-Stories are buried under the mountain of fan art requests and commissioners. Maybe extend the "CS Adoptables" thread to include both my pets and the story that goes with it?

*confused*

As for the "you're the only one that can find it" you can always link your story in your sig. Then anyone can find it :)
