RE: [pinhole-discussion] lack of pinhole images on photosig
Gregg, Personally, I would prefer a forum type of format, since I have the list set up on my work email, and can not access it from home(yet). Plus, it would be easier to search archived discussions, and view people's profiles to contact them off-list if necessary. The forum model links the creator and contributors to the discussion in an easy to follow manner, IMHO. -Dan -Original Message- From: pinhole-discussion-admin@p at ???

I was curious and took a look at www.photosig.com. Its a very impressive site, perfect for a photo community. I try to keep up with the direction things take on the web and I think the photosig site may well be a milestone in this type of community. It combines discussion and image viewing very nicely. I have written to Willis Boyce, the developer of the site to see if he would consider sharing his code. He uses the same programming language I use on the Pinhole Visions site, so it would be easy to implement a similar site for the discussion list if he is agreeable. If not, then I am considering doing something somewhat similar myself. This will take a while, but it fits in with the direction I have wanted to take things for some time - combining a "forum" with an on-line "gallery". The "forum" by itself did not go over well this past year, but I think it might be used more if combined directly with the gallery. What I would set up would require members to "register" (the same as the discussion list) before posting images or in the forum (in order to keep down the spammers, etc.), but anyone could view images and postings. I would be interested in other's thoughts about this. - Gregg ___ Post to the list as PLAIN TEXT only - no HTML Pinhole-Discussion mailing list Pinhole-Discussion@p at ??? unsubscribe or change your account at http://www.???/discussion/

It looks like there are less than a dozen pinholes, and tens of thousands of every thing else. I'm going to upload some pinholes and see what the response is like.
