Creative Forum (rock, members, quote, talented, song)

[Urban Hat€monger ?]

Given how successful the Song writing forum is I was thinking why not go the whole way & have a creative forum where people can post artwork , photography , creative writing and that sort of thing.

I could see it working , there are a lot of talented people on this forum.

im down with that, i'll even post in this one.

I could see that being fun and interesting. I'd probably post in it every so often too.

I like this idea.

This site is called MusicBanter

therefore our threads are about Music. Hell if I had my way, the Lounge wouldn't exist. The songwriting forum is up because it directly relates to music. There are plenty of other forums for art. And if you want to post it here, put it the Lounge or the Games/Spam sub-forum.

The way you spoke in this msg, sounds like your the mod with all the say.

i think its a good idea.. I know this is about msuic.. but still music is a artform, so why not bring in a little of other type of art areas... gives us something to do when not many people are posting in the music forums.. plus it can bring new people in.

aside from what eimp said, then make it a subforum in the lounge, it would work well, why not. give the people what they want!

[littleknowitall]

I'm gonna disagree.
First and foremost, yes this is a music forum, but the attached non music forums seem to attract new members and help keep the current members posting here on MusicBanter.
The 'Arcade' being the case in point.

I really can't see what harm a 'Creative Forum' can cause. After all, quite a few of the members who post here may have initially been attracted by the 'Songwriting' forum, which I agree is music related, but without it would the likes of hobojesus, DRMO, Crow etc. choose to stay?
I'm sure a 'Creative Forum' would prove popular among those members just mentioned, amongst others.
It sounds like a good idea and at least should be given a try.
