Some very interesting points on both sides and I now have one foot back on the fence.
I did some searches of the forums and there are indeed a number of sketches in the various imaging forums. Recently most people posting sketches have done so in the Obs Report forum.
While I agree that further fragmenting the site with another sub-forum may not be desirable the sketches on the site are currently very fragmented.
A search on 'sketch' for the whole site results in 444 threads which include many such as this one which actually contains no sketch. A search on 'draw' gives 500 results, some of which actually contain a drawing. So, to find the sketches you have to go into each forum and do more selective searches. If you limit the search to Titles only you get a higher hit rate but also miss some.
While I still think a sketching sub-forum would be nice maybe some stickies as others have suggested and an informal standard about the way sketches are posted would make them easier to find. This is as simple as putting 'sketch' somewhere in the title which most recent posts already do.
