Alright...this is just a germ of an idea. Actually it's more like the thought of a germ, lol...

I've learned a lot from the people that I've made friend's with at this site, not through commenting and critique, but mostly through e-mail, chatting and photosharing...So here's my idea...

Photo-buddies...

There could be a 'photo-buddy' list of people interested, here, in the forum, where each person briefly states their interests, types of photography they like focus on, what they would like to learn or what knowledge they feel they could share, etc.....and it could have a link to their homepage...

Then, if someone interested in having a photo-buddy, sees someone they think they might  like to be paired with, they could contact that person. Then those two would be removed from the list, unless they felt they would like more 'buddies'...

I don't know...it's just an idea...  :^ /  But I thought it had some interesting possibilities...They could collaborate and share it in the forum...Also, it may draw some people 'out'  of the background at RR, who may not really know anyone here at RR and are a bit shy...
