Great idea Alex. I think it would really work, and be a source of knowledge and fun to many people.

It does look good.

With regards input what I propose is to use this forum to begin and shape the text, that way we can all input. Open source software is a good precedent for this, where the large numbers of enthusiasts provide a better product (much better IMO) than the big commercial software houses. In web stuff Apache is a brilliant example.

Yes that's good idea...

Would it be easiest to perhaps setup a new section in the forum? If so I'll set it up.

Once we've worked the structure and breakdown of the different topics, we can list them there, and all can contribute in seperate threads. This also allows other to make comment before they are published on the website.

Although Joomla already allows for people to post, and others to approve before they are published, I also think a forum is a better way to do this.

I also think once the website has some decent content, we can promote it a little on the web, so more people will find it, and hopefully more will take an interest in contributing.

Look on the home page of the forum, the new forum section is there.

I have Emailed you the pic, this is the only one I could find, and it's very close to the one used...

Ok I've kicked off one of the topics 'frictionless strokes and styles'

I'll be hanging out on the PIPs website section when I've chance so will shift focus from this forum until its done (I prefer to focus on one thing at once).

So it will have a forum and the pip talk will move there?

Why not register a related domain name and do it all properly so that people can find it etc?

Yes that is a good point. Ideally the pip forum should be integrated into the pips website.

However this forum has now already become quite popular, and we might lose more people if we change it again. Plus I have not worked out how to set up a forum with Joomla (I know it's aprt of it though).

It was my intention to pick a dedicated url, but I thought I'd get things going first, so see if we can get it off the ground. When we have some decent content I can register a domain for it. Search engine promotion should therefore not be done until we have chosen the new domain.

We can sort things out as we go, it's a bit too much for me to organise myself, but when things get going I'll look into that...

To be honest, it sounds to me like doing everying backwards. This forum has proved there is demand for a dedicated pips forum, and Joolma isn't forum creation software. Why not just build a stand alone pips site, complete with forum, review pages etc? Make it a total package, under one neat URL.

If hosting is the problem I'll create & host it (I already run several business sites, & have a package hosting deal) under the condition that after initial setup I can remain just a member, and don't have to be a mod or adminstrator of any kind. Alex should do the admin (with help from others as requested) and the experienced pip users should be the mods.

Its a good point and generous offer.

I'm not too fussy about the forum being separate from the website, but I see the logic. I dunno ... at present there is a forum to discuss things and a website for information - its a big improvement.

The important thing is that we don't lose posts: I dunno what happened to Wotan-tt or all the postings on it...

Yes you make some good points Speedplay.

Your 3rd reason could be that having the long pips forum as well as an inverted forum in the same place, gives us more opportunity to draw more players to the Dark Side :twisted: ... a worthy cause isn't it?
