Balloon Chat

I'd very much like this to be an unbiased forum for the members where we can talk about anything balloon related.
So what topics would you like to have?
The Interview a guest seems a good idea & how about trying to put the balloon pictures & talk into sections, basic , int and advance.
The problem here is who decides what goes where.
Anyway all sensible suggestions are welcome.

Bits and bobs
maybe an interview part where you or some one you know interviews a professional twister or decorator.
just some ideas I'm sure others will have some and I'll post some more as I get them :)
That interview idea is good!
I don't know if its possible - but maybe a "model of the week" section would be good where you or a guest twister posts instructions for a new model each week. I don't know if people would be willing to do that but it would be something different and would certainly encourage people to participate in the forum!
Maybe model a month to give a chance for twisters to learn before new 1 but great idea
Would this help http://www.phpbb.com/support/documentat ... ion3_1_1_6 (http://www.phpbb.com/support/documentation/2.0/#section3_1_1_6)
3.1.1.6: Adding Categories
To add a new category, look at the bottom of the forum/category listing. Enter the desired category name into the text box and click Create New Category.
I think it would be a shame to segregate twisters skill level as I would put myself as Beginner/ int and wouldn't know what 1 to put me in plus you could end up with a confutation from others. also would take a lot of work to police.
I think start of with the basics like photos of models, a fun competition, product review, instructions and business maybe even decor/weaving just to get things started then move or rename as needed, it's going to have some teething problems what ever you do.
Thank you for starting the interviews :)
I like the idea of a model of the month - it helps to share ideas and new twists (twists .... geddit eh didya??? :lol: ahem!) on even basic models - we all have a favourite model that works well and that our punters love,
I think "model of the month" is much better, easier to commit to, easier for people to keep up and also i think it would keep people interested if they new that on a certain day each month they would learn a new model!
Yep model of the month sounds good to me as well.
Will get a few others to contribute to this as well so that we could all learn a new model.
We could also have a seperate model of the month with no picture to start with just a word
& we all make a variation of the same thing, perhaps we could start with say a bird & we all make our own version,
could be a good learning curve?

I would like to see a thread on artwork tips... mine is awful and a few handy hints would be fabulous!
