New Photo & Video Forum?

[Alex]

I am thinking we could use a separate forum for people who want to get better at photography/video. I am thinking of it as a place where we could all dump our pictures to get some feedback from the more professional uutah folks, or even unprofessional ones. For example, what people like about a photo, what could be improved on , etc.

I know the General forum could cover it now, but the threads would get buried very quickly.

Sounds good Alex, I would be all for it as well as some others

alex, you may want to start a thread in the about uutah section ... i think that's what joe did with the getogether forum.

[marc olivares]

LOL... you want to add MORE forums...

i was thinking we need to purge more than half of these forums.
most never get used or can be condensed into one area.

I think that would be cool as heck, given that I'm beginning to have an interest in photography.

Good idea, can the mods move this thread over?

I wouldn't mind that either, like the Whitewater/Flatwater/Fish one could be combined together. So could Hike/Backpacking.

I agree, some definitely need to be condensed... Though I am kinda partial to having a photography section myself.

I think that would be a great Idea I enjoy taking photo's and would love to have a place to discuss techniques and anything else to do with photography.

I think it's pretty neat that this place offers just about something for everyone. It's nice to be able to have like-minded people getting together and talking about the things they're interested in. Obviously the ones that want to see forum areas lumped together are the ones they really have no interest in what is being lumped. Keep in mind, they're are interests in those areas where some feel that there isn't enough.

As far as photography, again I think it would be a good area for people to share and learn. Nobody who pulls out a camera to take a pic wants a crappy pic. It could be an educational area for people to learn and pick up tips that may prevent some of those crappy pics

[Alex]

So who is the Nay sayer???? Stop hiding behind the internets!

[tanya]

I like the idea! I would love to have help learning photography.

[waltny]

All for it...

[Alex]

I like the idea! I would love to have help learning photography.

I actually hoped you'd give us some advice

considering this site is heavily based on sharing photographs ... it would only make sense


note: topic moved to "all about uutah" section

[tanya]

Help with photoshop would be wonderful too!

[accadacca]

So lets decide on a forum title, description, where it should go and we'll git er dun. 'We can prolly move some related posts to the area too, to get things started.

The Dark Room?

[RugerShooter]

In the special intrests section. The Dark Room is a great name I like it

[Sombeech]

Dark Room, that's good.

Lens Lounge

Camera Corner

Photo Phorum; Foto Forum

But Dark Room is very good.

[tanya]

I vote for Dark Room ---it's sort of sexy
