But ... but ... I don't want to split my mega-thread - its now got over 8,000 views meaning I've overtaken Sherock's graphic thread!!!!  I'm about 5rd or so in the all time lists (although I'm not going to overtake the current #1 (I think) ... "My Pic" ... which has over 39,000 views anytime soon ).  I'm not sure my ego would cope with having lots of smaller threads ...

I do map work, the odd bit of coding and obviously quite a few graphics - it doesn't make sense to have all that stuff put together in one board - its better if map questions and comments are together, coding stuff is together, etc.

To be honest, I'm not sure we need a Blogs board at all with the current amount of input ... when my artwork thread was moved to the Blogs board there was at least one comment about it being in the wrong place, which I can understand - after all, the thread is about graphics, so surely it should be in the graphics board?

All joking in my first paragraph aside, that thread could do with splitting up, but I'd prefer to be able to keep my posts together ... so maybe ...

In graphics we have a bunch of stickies for each artist - which is good - keeps their stuff visible and easy to find.  My thread used to be a sticky ... but once some of my images made it in-game I got moved to Blogs.  Maybe a better solution would be to create a sub-board under graphics that only I can post in (but all can reply) and put my thread in there.  I can then split up my mega-thread into different topics (trees ... lizardmen ... etc.).  Other graphic artists like Sherock would have the same if wanted.

Not sure if the same approach can be used for programming blogs, etc. ?

Anyway - just an idea!

Regarding forum organization, I think that most of the people who are around here all the time use http://www.daimonin.com/unread.html so the structure to me doesn't matter, I just don't read some stuff in Community forum and Marketplace, so I believe that the structure of forums should be made as simple as possible so newbs orientate around here...

About developers dropping a line about what are they doing now is a good idea, also they should write what they plan to do next when they finish what are they doing, I'm very curious what MT is doing now, and when he will implement the features I'm interested in...
