As would I, it's more a problem with blocking the time to do the overhaul. I'm looking to have another "banner" contest to coincide with the launch.
OPEN TO ALL:
Does anyone have specific information they'd like to see?
Is anyone interested in creating "brushes"?
Is anyone interested in creating "styles"?
Is anyone interested in creating "actions"?
We have a new improved "tutorial section" on the site that includes Photoshop, but how do you(s) feel about mini-tut's within the Resource Center?
PS I'd love to see this "forum" bloom!
:)

Here's what I'd like to see. A way to create brush and palette knife effects in order to duplicate Bob Ross' style in making clouds and mountains. I'm quite serious, not a joke. It's been frustrating me for a long time. Also would be nice to be able to recreate his brush effects for making trees. I have no doubt it could be done, I just don't know how to do it.

How about a hints & tips section. Just quick 1 or 2 para helpful bit that most people go "Ooooh! I didnt know you could do that." For instance: How to straighten scans. Use the ruler tool and lay it down a straight surface of the scanned, wonky image. Use Image/Transform/Rotate/Arbitrary and the degree difference from the horizontal/vertical will be already there. Just hit "rotate" and your'e done.

Sound like a great idea. I have a great deal of them floating around in my head. I guess it's time to put them in code and re-do the Resource Center before eveyone loses interest in this forum ;) :) retrocity
