Crash! Boom! Bash!
I think we are finally finding a consensus on the form of some type of home for sketching should first take.
Stickies!
Now, I agree that sketches and reports are different things. So what ever stickies we end up with, they should be in the main Obs. and Visual forum page. Agreed?
Then how many and their subject matter.
I don't want to complicate things, nor dilute content, or create places for cobwebs to collect. So, my first suggestions:
1:
Sketching tips, a place for technique discussion, how-to, materials, new ideas, problems with gear such as lighting, dew, smudge control, etc.
2:
Sketch the Moon Night, a place where everything Moon is the focus, regular lunar features become the specified target, Lunar eclipses, even a pretty landscape sketch where the Moon has created some dramatic effect.
The following one is my weakest one-
3:
Solar System, sorta explains itself. Planetary sketching isn't all that strong here, though the Sun does get a bit of a bashing.
4:
DSO's, the rest of the Universe.
Maybe the last two would be best served as one:
Solar System and DSO's?
