Both Cap and I have tried to start threads for photo eras but they have bombed. Matt just PM'd me about it, so let's discuss this.

I am not yet certain if we will be allowed to do this, but:

How would everyone feel about creating a photo sub forum?

It would be here within the mods forum and would have threads for each fighter era and for judges, et cetera. Users would not be able to add threads, they could be added by a mod - we could simply vote whether or not to add a new thread category if a need arises.

To begin with, it would contain the following threads (by way of example):

Fighters: 2000s
Fighters: 1990s
Fighters: 1980s
Fighters: 1970s
Fighters: 1960s
Fighters: 1950s
Fighters: 1940s
Fighters: 1930s
Fighters: 1920s
Fighters: 1910s
Fighters: 1900s
Fighters: pre 1900
Judges
Referees
Cornermen
Ring Card Girls
Venues
Generic photos

This would require a team of volunteers to systematically move photos and I am not going to be one of those volunteers.

If we could do it, the photos would be much more easily accessible and the fact that only a mod could add a thread upon request would keep that one area from becoming a tangled mess.

I know it would be a break from the wild-wild west posting mentality that we have all grown accustomed to but what does everyone think?
