Tutorials

The point is if the tutorial is on lighting and posing in a cramped space, it could be portrait, wedding, or lighting.

What about taking my other suggestion and going the other way, Create a thread NOBODY can post in that just contains links to the tutorials in whatever section the writer felt it should be in. So if you were interested in browsing the tutorials there would be a place, if you were just interested in anything portrait that would work too.

As far as re-inventing wheels, how many tutorials on dragon eyes are there?? [grin]

You need to learn to type faster.  I think I can find you a tutorial on that...

Because they will get their friends to vote for their threads no matter how good/poor it is.

That sounds good.

Let's see if I can summarize the discussion so far.  Somebody correct me if I'm missing something.

The suggestion was made that we need a separate board for tutorials.  I'm apprehensive because it seems to me that the tutorials would be better placed within the main board.  For example, a tutorial on softening skin with Photoshop fits in better with the digital tools board than it would with a bunch of tutorials on depth of field and picking the right lens.  My latest suggestion is similar to what Web Master World does.  They have a library link at the top of each forum that lists what the mods or admin consider the best threads out of that particular board.  I like that idea because it would allow the good stuff to be more readily accessible and not get lost in the hundreds of other posts.
