Remember about a year ago when jmh offered to ad the option of creating your own PSC blog?
At the time I didn't like the idea. JMH put it to a vote, and the majority agreed.
Since then I have actually found a few blogs that were pretty stinking cool.
Then something I've been trying to come up with a good idea for awhile came to mind.
I always wished we had the option to "Moderate" threads we start, but, of course that IS a bad idea.
However!! A meeting of the two may be sonmething pretty cool--


I would like to reintroduce the blog idea BUT I would like to present it in this form..
A. Blog would be a modified forum thread--
B. Others can "Join the thread"-just as always,but
C. OWNERS of the "Blogger-thread" would have at least the option to delete
others comments,or send them to the back of the line.
D.Owners would have option of starting from fresh any time they please--
I would be doing a comic strip blog for now( "Splodge"
relating the fictitious adventures of our very own Splodge , hanging out in that PUB he keeps dreaming of buying ), but can possibly start from scratch
with another idea whenever i see fit.
E. Major Difference from a thread here:A HEADER SECTION would be at the top of the Blog page where
it would not be in forum comment format, but an adjustable "TABLE"
that the blog owner could do html within and such.Using up 50% of the first page
size limit.

I really like this idea and am not including a vote option--
that will be jmh's job only if HE likes the idea and has time to present it
after he has worked out a format that is acceptable to him.
IF he does set up a vote PLEASE don't just vote no if you don't do blogs without considering all the possible benefits of it.
Just imagine if some of the experts at certain PS styles around here made blogs relating to their particular talents with links, advice, small tuts, and tricks!
Or even L@rues homeless collection presented with....style.
OR..someone's blog keeping track of a tourney...with BRACKETS!
OR...A place to present ALL those chops that you can't keep in your profile!!
Like from the TOURNEYS and the OLD HeadtoHeads!
Imagine Doodler and Occecid and Square Displaying some of their photography right HERE!!!!!
*edit* Oh yeah! And this is can be used as FREE ADVERTISING SPACE AS WELL!
(We'll end up with two hundred graphic artist trying to sell their work to other graphic artist), but HEY!


If you like the idea , say it here, so jmh knows.

If you don't like it-have a beer-go here.........................

jmh, Thanks for hearing this idea out

One other idea that might get a lot of use--
people who really want critiques on chops that are in an onrunning
contest can post that image in their blog and get honest answers
and not worry -- i dunno why people don't want these critiques in the comment box of their entry--but they just don't--
don't like someone elses negative comment? delete away--tomorrow--change the pic in yer blog header and start allover


Oh, and I wanna see a decent bloggerthread of PSC BostonCon

just use MySpace

...and there's no poll Scion!

the idea is that this would be within PSC-
there are four forum sections on the main forums page-
this would just be a very small fifth--
it would have a very low profile yet be very well integrated into the site.
I'd much rather see your other-site work right here--
We have a tight community- people here keep track of other's works at other sites.
It'd be much easier seeing it here- with your ability to edit in and edit
out exactly what you want to show off--and if it's yer own website ya wanna show off- just put a big ol' link at the top of your blog.

Are you kidding me? Nobody has an opinion on this at all?

I'm surprised as well. I'm telling you... Shouldda done a poll!

being able to read everyone's thoughts here as PSC........could be kinda trippy

OK! I'll ADD A STINKING POLL!!!

hahaha... smartass

I got my fingers crossed for the site upgrade...
man this thread died a quick death though

I hate MySpace, it's a cult. If we were going to do something like this, I much rather have an official site-local blogger than some offsite one that dissapears as soon as the thread that links to it is buried here. The HTML mentioned is enticing, I think i'd like that a lot. I say it'd be cool to give it a try.

I think you would just want to delete what I have to say Scion, so I won't say it, good luck

P.S. BLUE SMARTIES RULE!!!

wow, that's blunt!
