I am suggesting organising events on this forum. This is a graphics-related forum but that doesn't mean we have to do events which are related to graphics. We could do something else easily. Why this would help? Well, it would raise peak times for the forum, because everyone would be on at that time (all at once) and they would be doing the event. Then it shows at the bottom of the forum and I think it would make new users more inclined to register and users who are already registered more inclined to post and take part in forum events if they didn't get to take part in previous ones. It would also be a little bit of fun and make the forum much more interactive. We could have the good ol' stuff like 'Signature of the Week' and the winner can display a badge or something in their signature and be given points - Ok, I know this forum does not have a point system because I'm not sure if you can add that modification on Zetaboards, but if you can, do it, because it's a must on any gfx forum. If it doesn't, then ignore the latter but if you do I would also suggest adding a Marketplace forum where pieces of graphics can be sold and bought.

About the 'Signature of the week', 'Avatar of the week' or whatever other type of graphics you might want to do this contest on. I don't mind organising this ^_^ ...like making the badges or actually making the thread where people post the gfx and the thread where it gets voted on which is the best etc. But before we do this we obviously need more members xD. I've already made a banner/sig sort of thing which I will display in my signature. I'll also display it on other forums like SignatureBar or any other one I usually go on (probably not any other one apart from RSMDB or SignatureBar excluding this forum because those are the only two I probably go on lol. Well probably Planetrenders aswell (I'm just blabbing on now..sorry) (when I start typing, I can't stop lawl). Well anyway, this is to get more members which will make these events much more fun and participative.

Just my suggestion on events and a possible point system.

I'm planning on making it a vBulletin forum as soon as possible. I'd like to have all these types of events as soon as possible. This is just a starting forum to get me on my feet with managing and HTML.
Great idea.

Thanks, I'm not really sure if I prefer vBulletin over Zetaboards or vice versa, but I guess both are great :)
