Great idea, Dave-So, even if I arrived at it independently :-) It seems like a good compromise. People get the audience they want without cluttering up the main forum with long post with images and the obligatory train oohs and ahhs. Plus, hopefully, it will help gently prod people into the habit of looking at the Showcase forum. There is more to forum life here than the Poser forum but too many people (myself included) have become almost agoraphobic about going outside it's familiar walls.
