*| Welcome to Art and Photography - Some General Rules and FAQ |*

**Mars_302** · 08-01-2005, 02:26 AM

1st rule: Be nice, we are here to learn to appreticate art, have a good time and learn some new things

2nd: When some posts a piece of work up, only allow yourself to go no further than contructive criticism. We all had to start some place, and there is always someone better, so anything along the lines of "that sucks" wont be tolerated and will be deleted. Unless of course the thread starter allows it.

3rd: No drama, thats a given.

4th: Nude Art is allowed, as if: You use the approiate *ww* warning with your thread title. It has to be art IE not porn, which is a fine line, so please use your best judgement.

I think with the above Jerm has pretty well outlined the guiding tenets of this forum, but if I could I would just like to re-emphasize #2. Everyone starts some place and we can all stand to improve so its essential to keep your comments above board, civil and constructive. There will be no hating tolerated, and by all means keep any squabbles unrelated to the forum out.

I would also like to add that there will be no tolerance of plagiarism, please be sure to post your own work and not that of some one else. We all work very hard in regards to our hobbies and its degrading to disrespect that hard work by plagiarizing it.

Also, to tie in with the plagiarism issue, please be respectfull of each others art and be sure to PM that person if you would like to use it for anything. Again just a matter of respecting the time, effort, expense and skill involved.

I'm sure there will be a few other things along the way but for now that about does it for me. I hope everyone enjoys this new forum and I look forward to seeing everyone's work!

Rob, I've seen all the photo's you have of some of the more historical sites and must say I've seen those before...you freakin plagiariser.

Be sure to include www.Dpreview.com in the FAQ! Also have just general terms and functions of the camera. Maybe something on what the hell am I doing wrong type of thing (I.E. remember to check your ISO setting before you shoot...gawd damn 800 ISO during the day after a night time of using 800...ugh)

You called me out, I'm shamed. For shame, for shame.

Main Entry: photo shoot
Part of Speech: noun
Definition: such a session for commercial purposes, such as a fashion magazine

Germ youre missing a few very important LOCAL Galleries that we should all be supporting.

Red Letter One - Ybor
Covicant - Tampa
Vitallie - St Pete

By far those three are the best in MHO for local tallent.
