Stuart, I think that is a great idea. As a Newbie in the area of digital black and white, someone like myself could only benefit from such a forum to further develop both creative and technical skills. I would only hope that this new forum be broader in scope by providing more than just technical 'Question and Answer' threads about fine art papers, ink systems, QTRs and Curves, etc. as per this yahoo digital b&w group. I would like to see discussion on other topics of interest as well, such as, creative applications, ideas on how to market and sell one's work, maybe a member's gallery, techniques in digital processing, just to mention a few. I for one would definately be interested. Please keep me informed. --- In DigitalBlackandWhiteThePrint@yahoogroups.com, "inna_thort" <stuart@i...> wrote: > > Hello All. > > After being a member here for a while now, I have noticed numerous > comments about how nice it would be to have a real forum, in the sense > that it can be searched easily, there are sections for particular > areas of interest etc etc. > > As a member of other yahoo groups I think this would be a good idea - > yahoo as we all know is terrible for searching out information. > their color scheme isn't great either lol. > > So I have decided to take it upon myself to create one. > I run a linux server here in my studio and am using an open source > phpBB package - info can be found here about this particular bulletin > board interface: http://www.phpbb.com > > Within the next few weeks my server will be mirrored at > http://www.fasthosts.co.uk/ as well as their own mirrors located > worldwide. > I have unlimited bandwidth/disk space available to me. > > My main interest is with epson/hp printers, both color and b+w > printing, primarily for art reproduction, but the forum does not have > to be limited here, and I hope it won't be ... > > I understand that there is valuable information here already that > could, if necessary, be transfered over to the new forum.
