James, Chris, it there any chance of adding the text in the image to the Post New Thread box in red as shown below?
Why?
Below, is an idea that Denise and I came up with with regards to concerns that we both have.
More recently than in the past, it seems that few folks are posting images in Avian (and elsewhere) and never commenting on anyone else's photos. Since I got home a few days ago it seems that Randy, Dan, me, sometimes Doug, and Denise, who is not even an Avian Mod, are pretty much the only folks commenting on anything like a regular basis..... We have lots of new blood but nobody posting comments. Or very few at best.
I was thinking of e-mailing folks who post and then disappear without commenting but Denise advised me that they would probably simply feeling threatened and quit posting.... And I realized that she is correct.
As part of a campaign to improve BPN we jointly came up with the following: if possible, add text as below into the box that appears when you hit the "Post New Thread" box in the critique forums.
Can it be done?
As part of the campaign we run an article on the front page and maybe do something else. Stickies do not seem too effective....
