there is now a digital camera section for the main site, but no digital camera forum. while digicam stuff isn't clogging up OT like p&n crap was, it might not be clear to new users that digicam stuff is normally discussed here.

No. That would lead to individual forums for all different kids of individual hardware catagories. That kind of organization isn't organization, it's clutter.

Clutter is what we have. We need reorganization. I think the addition of a di forum would be helpful, and removing some other low traffic forums would improve further.

Hell no. At least not before there is an individual Programming forum.

It would be nice if we still had private topics just imagine the possibilities.

and I'm not talking about pr0n/warez which caused the demise of PT.

We need several forums: Digital Photo (legit since AT has a new DP news/review section), Cars, and YAGT.

Why don't we have a pics forum so we can post soft-pr0n because that's what the digital camera forums would turn into...

I guess it would be cool to see some of the abstract art everyone takes with their cameras, but we get to see some of those in ATOT anyhoo...

And a Common Sense forum where people can hopefully LEARN a thing or three! :p

And a "I'm bored, call me" forum! :D

I haven't noticed all the much camera chatter. I don't think many people would visit that forum.

There are other sites entirely that offer forums for it. Just like there are other sites that offer forums for car talk. AT should be nerd-talk only!

We can also merge the Firefly fanclub/Quizno's fanclub forums into one, right?

:p

What do you care? You barely go outside of ATOT.

I voted no, because you rarely see a camera post during the rest of the year.
