    I'm with the "Creative Forum" ... maybe not the coolest of names but it resembles the others like "Models Forum" etc...
    plus it's straight forward and recognizable for new creative phunners to find their way.

    I think we will let this go until the end of the weekend, by then everyone who wants to should be able to comment, and then I'll gather up all the info, get together with Cayne, and see what we can accomplish.

    I'd go along with that, too, TCF - simple and unpretentious, but I'd still like to hear what River might have in mind - it was his baby!

    9 pages and I have no clue what it is all about :/

    Hopefully I'll get a summary of the events and help to solve "this issue" whatever it is :D

    Bottom line: This forum is for everybody and anybody. You can post what you like as long as you don't lower the experience of the forum for others. If you keep this ground rule in mind, you should have no problem at all :)

    Do unto others as you would have others do unto you - I like this saying :D

    Some nice "creative" ideas there, CylnZ! But the main problem appears to lie in the "graphics" area, and once that has been sorted out and organised to everyone's satisfaction, the other smaller elements may need no further action for the moment!

    I agree with Cayne here, I think when all comments are chequed and counted a few polls on names and the structure of the forum should be employed to help with the process. I also take from Cayne's comments that it is ok to start a thread for your work if you wish.

    Is this not what sparked the debate? If so why fix what ain't broken.

    Just thought I'd try and be helpful in any thread sorting/grouping process that's attempted. This afternoon I did a quick and dirty sift through the Creative Backyard threads, and came up with the following - it might help as a starting point! If anyone objects to my categories and groupings, don't hesitate to say so!

    The order within the groupings is not significant - it's just the order as I came across the threads as I went down the pages. My apologies for not providing links - I only thought of it when I'd nearly finished! Some of these threads are in reality defunct, having lost the images they are about!

    Nice overview S-type ... went searching also (in the general forum) http://forum.phun.org/showthread.php?t=267915&highlight=gif
    ... apparently completely forgotten to move over to the CB (I forgot also).

    Of course would create a major issue with some since it's overlapping with other gif-threads so I'm not gonna press it in unless some feel it should.

    Plus, motivationel posters was originaly created by billy and restarted by hayd and its not a webfinds, if humour isn't creative then none of this is.

    In fact the more i look over the list the less relevance i see in it. Why dissect creativity and why call half the stuff webfinds when they arent?

    This is not a proposal to split the forum, Jamms! There was some talk about grouping/merging some threads, and I'm trying to be helpful! With regard to your GIFs thread, I couldn't tell, but if you say they're home-grown that's good enough for me! I've edited my list. :D

    I agree! Also edited! :D

    This isn't a judgement call, pm! It's simply a statement of fact - that the phunner-generated material is far outnumbered by external material. That's all! :D

    If we're going to tidy things up, TCF, it seems right not to knowingly leave loose ends lying around. But you know better than I what the contentious issues might be, and whose toes might be trodden on, so what you do with your thread is up to you! :D

    I'll ponder over that gif thread for a bit ... maybe I'll ask a mod to delete it ... maybe have it moved and I start posting in it again.
    Anyhow it's not a big deal to me and I don't care for "thread starting" reputation and stuff.
    And the "who's first" thing ... well I quit that when I left prep school. ;)

    hm.

    just to make some things "clear" - from my point of view.

    a) "webfinds" (i.e. works by non-phun-members on other sites) are not naturally better or worse than phunner´s own creations, they are just naturally not phunner´s own creations - and the idea for this subforum was to acknowledge exactly those.
    they are outstanding - and presenting them in such a prominent place makes phun (even more...) outstanding.

    b) names are probably not that important (as usual - content matters), but Creative Forum is fine for me. by phunners for phunners... ;)
