Ok, taking off where another thread was going, what do you all think about trying to find ways to improve the site and forward that to the powers that be.
For example, how about a list of other photography web sites and forums. Now, I don't want to put down or disreguard anyones work or efforts. I'm sure we all know that there is a difference in sellable work and high art and the range of images that falls in between those extremes. I think the quality of work seen on G1 in the last few months hasn't been where it once was when I started to visit. Bare in mind that I haven't even posted anything, not that it would be good. I'm just saying I'm a beginner who wants to jump start his skills. I do so, or try to do so and looking at other's work.
Maybe we can have a 'Best of the web" and have a links to a few photo on other sites. Maybe even a lifted copy of the image, as i think it would fall under fair use for educational purposes. but, a link to it that opens in a new window would work. Then a thread could follow for that image and we could trash it or praise it.
maybe if this idea fails to move you. maybe you can provide a suggestion.
