Tanua Alot of people ahve suggested things I thought of, though I was wondering if maybe there could be a place, maybe added with the helpful links section about maybe useful physical books that people might have picked up over the years for various things? Like names and authors. So you could like go and look and find a book on something you might be needing. Yes, internet is nice, but sometimes it's really good to just have the physical book on hand to go through and have in front of you. I myself could have a Looooooooong list to add. XD Maimy's book thread is here if you'd like to add your favourite books to it smile I'll get around to adding the ones listed so far in the Resources sticky eventually.
milkbun About contests/events: What I have found on most forums to work well (including ones I've owned) is to pick a monthly theme, as broad as a color or as specific as a watermelon, and let the members interpret the theme in whatever is their favorite medium. Have a thread where they can post their month's theme (and only posts with the item is allowed), and give each member like 100g for participating (or whatever amount doesnt' break the bank). You can even pick a "winner" or two, who get a bonus prize by doing a random draw or picking "most creative" (so that skill level doesn't count) We've run one of those so far, although with everyone being so busy it didn't get a huge response sweatdrop I've ressurected it for a new theme though, so hopefully this will work out better!

Hokay, thought about it and changed my mind about subforms =3 I think it's a good idea to go ahead with, seeing as there are now so many members. I'll just be dividing into fairly broad categories for now, and will divide again later if it actually gets that busy. Here's what I'm thinking:
Main forum - for general things that apply to all crafters Clay, Ceramics & Pottery - for all that lovely sticky gooey sculpture Fabrics and Threads - for sewing, plushies, knitting, amigurimi etc. Painting & Customising - for DIY toys, sneakers etc. Origami and Papercrafts - all things paper Promotions and Market - for promoting your online shop, newest creation for sale or requesting something
Sound cool? I'm leaving off the chatty section for the moment, but might get to that later.

Nefidean I had an idea that could be used for a contest as well. We have alot of new types of crafters, so how about some diffrent banners? I suggested makeing sub banner in the Other Craft Subforum to help Promote Jewlery, but I think the idea could be used well with the rest of the crafters as well. I believe there's a contest suggestion thread some where so for the sake of not repeating my self over and over again. I'll post my idea there ^-^ (no one likes clutters of repeats) The only issue I have with that is I'm really fussy with my graphics sweatdrop While I know that we have a lot of very talented crafters in this guild, I want to stick with the branding that I have for the guild currently. I agree that we really need banners that reflect other aspects of the guild than clay sculpture though - maybe if people could post photos they wouldn't mind me using in banners, and I'll pick a few of the best from a range of media to make them from?
pokeymom there's too many old posts and not enough new ones. maybe you can do something about those? I hate clicking on something only to see that nobody has posted in a year or a few months. A lot of older posts are resurfacing since I started shifting threads into subforums. I'm done with that now, so hopefully it shouldn't be too bad... I'd prefer not to delete any old threads, in case someone wants to read the information in them. It shouldn't take too long for new posts to push them down ^_^
