Just a note to mention that we have been looking into this feedback and our internal discussion was derailed due to the recent server issues we were having. Good news is that the server has now been stabilised and we will now focus on this as a priority.and i would also like to add that we are probably discussing here about the problem of thread titles and themes for photoshoots being rather soft-porn, rather than artistic nude.
To this end, we are proposing some changes to the way threads are created/named in the Photoshoots section while being entirely mindful that we do not use a hammer to kill a fly sort of thing.
With regards to this, we had already made a change some time back and there are now two sections that cater to paid shoots :-One thing I do noticed, just now when I visited the links and the section, is that these shoots do overwhelm the photoshoots section. Which does drown out any other categories of photoshoots. Perhaps the mods can consider subcategories of shoots also
1. Workshops, Tutorials and Classes (link) - to cater for those who want to actually teach participants something to increase their photographic knowledge.
2. Photoshoots (link) - to cater for those that want to just shoot and perhaps learn something along the way in terms of photographic knowledge.
Granted that the photoshoots section has been dominated by one genre and unless some enterprising person(s) starts a trend of asking members to pay for the privilege of shooting something inanimate, or furry living things with more than two legs, we don't see a big requirement to further sub-divide the photoshoot section. We may be wrong though, so please advise us if there are areas we may have overlooked.
