I am sorry to say, but this thread is fruitless. The staff wants absolutley nothing to do with the idea. I think that if there was a photography forum, it would start out as random photoshoots and whatnot, then evolve into something more eye-candy ish and have trolls everywhere. I don't think the staff wants to worry about that kind of hassle.

Another classic example of a great idea that is just doomed to failure.
