A MESSAGE TO MODS. IT'S TIME FOR CHANGE Dear moderators and webmaster for TPF, I am a new member of the forum and I am very happy to be here however I do have a certain gripe. Before I start I wish to make it clear that I am in no way attempting to disrupt the style of the forum or upset anyone. I just feel that something needs to change. The problem I have is simple. It attains to the section called Photographic Discussions. When I clicked on It for the first time I expected to find a multitude of interesting threads on photographers and their work. This certainly is not the case. Instead we find things like: How do I promote sales for this Cage Fight? Why is my local camera store so much more expensive? Finally getting rid of the 18-55mm kit lens Why buy a Mac? Different exposure...different skin tone? Again I stress it is not my intention to upset the people who have started these threads but should they really be in a section called photographic discussion?? This is the description of the section: "A place to discuss what photography means to you: your influences, ethical challenges, abstract ideas, and other non-technical matters about photography and photographers". This description sounds fantastic but unfortunately we do not get what it says on the tin!! Ok enough rambling, I am simply asking for one of two things. 1. This area is checked and cleaned up and turned back into what it was originally intended for. or 2. A new area is created, for people like myself wish to discuss Photography, Photographers and Inspiration. I hope my message gets across and I hope we see some change for the better. Please, any comments welcome for ideas and support. Brian
