I'd like to hear about some of the things you enjoy on other forum websites that TFO doesn't currently offer. What would you like to see added to this site? A chat room? Additional off-topic forums? Photo galleries?
Any and ALL suggestions are welcomed!

Photo galleries!

How about a DIY section? (Do it yourself) For those who want to share their home made tort tables and such? With step by step photo tutorials and all that...

A chat room for sure. The one on Pangea is "open" 24/7. All you have to do is click on the link, and you're in. There are always people in at random times of the day. If you want to be a member over there Josh, just to take a look at it, here's the link http://www.pangeareptile.com/forums/

Just sign up and click on "chatroom" in the top heading thing.

Duly noted on the galleries and chat room. I like the idea of a DIY section too!

I like the idea of a DIY section. Not into chatrooms. Maybe a photo gallery section for easier viewing rather than the current thread posting method. Species specific sections in the gallery would be great too.

I would really like to see a section devoted to something like "This is how I keep this species" with someone going into detail how they keep or have kept a certain species based on their geographical area, their feeding schedule, their temperature gradients, humidity, breeding and incubation methods and sucess, etc... Basically a detailed care sheet for a specific species by specific people.

I think this could generate a lot of information and ideas for other people keeping the same species.

I'm with GB on this. I like the DIY and "how I keep this species".

'Species specific sections in the gallery would be great too.' Good idea GBtortoises. This way you could see if your tortie looks like any in the gallery, very useful for newbie keepers!

We're about to hold another photo contest and I'd like to make the winning photo(s) available to buy on different merchandise. Does anyone have any suggestions for alternatives to sites like Cafepress or Printfection?

This is a very good idea. My recent thread about sulcata faces was a big hit and I LOVED seeing all the sulacatas in one thread like that.
