The Lord	We will have a Major cleaning on this forum. Only the forums on the first page will remain. Actually, every forum with a last post from at least 7 days ago shall be pruned.

Darth_Bob	Why? What if someone needs to search for something? Why are some people obsessed with destroying all inactive threads? This is a forum, there is supposed to be a record left over. Otherwise we would call it a chat room.

The Lord	Exactly.

Darth_Bob	Well, it's not like we're going to lose some great art forever. Oh wait, YES WE ARE!!

General Tekno	You should leave the second page too, in my opinion. There is stuff on it that is fairly recent, and that does not deserve the dreaded deletion.

Goodbye History of the art forum...

Is there someone out there who could backup all the images in the posts that will be lost? all of them... it is history... and must be archived.

When will The blade of doom come down,
Taking my memories with unholy frown?
When will the Headsman swing his blade,
and leave behind, histories shade?
When will the Night darken the sky,
and scatter those pictures, oh why?

... I am a romantic soul... and poetry stitches my bleeding heart.

leppy	how about we open up a forum made specifically to house all the legendary threads that dont need to be deleted, and clear out all the other crap.

You know lord I have idea. Instead of silly contests. Why don't you guys make like a weekly sketch thing like conceptart.org DSG and Penciljack.com Critical Mass.

Like you give a topic to draw, and everyone draw there concepts. For example: This week topic: Orc archer and everyone draws there concepts.
This is good because unlike contests there are no winners or losers, its just people drawing. Modlers can also look in the thread to see if they want model any of the concepts.

This way everyones artwork won't be scattered all over the forum and it will all be in one thread.

Of course the whole idea can bomb and no one participates =/.
