Just want to get people's opinions on an idea I had.
How about this: a monthly lesson type thing. The 'teacher' (who will be whoever is willing and knows enough about the subject) will post a lesson on a particular topic, examples maybe? and some links to other reference material on the internet. They also give a task, which anyone interested then has a month to complete. After that, the 'teacher' will comment on submitted completed tasks, give advice and constructive criticism, as well as anyone else who has an opinion. New month, new thread, new lesson.
The only thing is that it will take a lot of work for the 'teacher' to think up a lesson, set it all up and comment on the entries.
First up I think we should have banner and logo one. Maybe put some background info on designing a good logo, then the task is to make one. And make the first one at least a competition, with a nice prize We can use the winning submission on our front page. We'd have to wait a bit, until we get some more members before running that though.
Please post your opinions on the idea here, what you think could be added/changed, when you think it should start, if you think you would like to be a 'teacher', what kind of topics you would like to be covered, and that kind of thing.

A group of teachers would work well, and yeah, make it a lot easier...
OptimaClonic: thanks for the offer! What kind of topics do you think you'd be interested in sharing your knowledge on?
Acis: I think it would last about a month, to give everyone time to complete the task.
I'm not sure about making them all competitions though... just more friendly lessons and advice. I do think we should have a banner competition though, to reward the winner for making us an 'official' banner. I might be able to donate a Sealed Letter or something to the cause.... actually, maybe we should have the banner competition completely separate from this, as it seems to be going in a different direction?
I was thinking of maybe not necessarily full on lessons... obviously it is hard to do in posts on a forum. How about, for example, a intro to CSS lesson. Put up some basic background about CSS (uh... this would have to be after the basic html lesson I guess sweatdrop ), the theory of its use, and a few tips/things to keep in mind (say with compatibility issues). Then link up a few good resources (like the tutorial at Webmonkey) and give a simple task, like recreating a page that the teacher created with CSS earlier.
So then the teacher is using online resources instead of giving a full on lesson, but still sharing their knowledge on the subject and helping anyone interested. I don't know how well that will work out in the more designy things though... tutorials tend to be less effective for those.
Any ideas on what kind of things you'd like to learn you guys?

colouring pictures? CG may be or creating a 3d object from a 2d?
