List of Pro Topic Threads - suggestion thread
There are a lot of good threads here, and a lot of bad ones. This thread is an attempt to catalog and organize the best so the good material is easily accessible. The actual list thread will be locked to prevent chatter from obscuring the information it contains. The edited list is at the top of the Photography section of the forum. I need your help in identifying threads on relevant subjects. To suggest a thread be included, or that a new topic be added to the list, post to the suggestion thread (here) with its URL and title. Nov 22 07 07:44 pm Link How about one on Photoshop techniques. Nov 22 07 07:46 pm Link Howard Garcia wrote: Ok, I added "Editing and Retouching." Nov 22 07 07:46 pm Link A thread about lighting which has really taught me all I know about lighting is here: https://modelmayhem.com/p.php?thread_id=96872 Nov 22 07 07:51 pm Link FLighthouse wrote: Cool.

Possibly something like: 1) Studio/Lighting/Locations 2) Gear/Equipment 3) The Industry 4) Copyright/Usage/Legal 5) Digital Workflow/Photoshop 6) Film 7) Miscellaneous Nov 22 07 08:01 pm Link Ched wrote: Suggestions for best sources of seamless, fabric/canvas backgrounds, other set props, etc. Nov 22 07 08:01 pm Link Ransom J's "This Is How I Do It" thread (could be a PS topic thread): https://www.modelmayhem.com/p.php?thread_id=184617 Nov 22 07 08:02 pm Link EA Photographics wrote: Write it. If it's good, it'll go on the list. This is to be a catalog of existing material. Nov 22 07 08:03 pm Link Here's a bunch that I had in my favorites.

Nov 22 07 08:16 pm Link Studio resource threads: East Coast https://www.modelmayhem.com/p.php?thread_id=49827 I did a quick search but nothing jumped out as a resource thread for West Coast, Midwest, Canada, International... but if things change with forum-specific mods this is the kind of thing that could be done where someone goes through all the studio rental threads and condenses the information by region.

Nov 22 07 08:27 pm Link Hi Ched, I think that the Picture of the Day competition is an important resource for gauging one's skill, inspiration, and motivation. The Picture of the Day is now sticky'ed to the top of the General Mayhem forum and found here: https://www.modelmayhem.com/p.php?thread_id=213509 Thanks for putting together this important resource. Take care, Tom  Nov 22 07 08:32 pm Link i have a list there don't miss nick's thread about inpiration https://modelmayhem.com/p.php?thread_id=163401 Nov 22 07 08:34 pm Link T R Willmitch wrote: Definitely.

Nov 22 07 08:38 pm Link I don't have a particular thread to suggest but just a thought that we could come up with some sort of layman's translation of various contracts, Terms of Service, releases and the like. We keep having threads that have good information about them, but the reality is that people in general need to be educated themselves. A sort of "Legal-ese 101" as it were. We might help to cut down on the Urban Myth Syndrome with respect to creative interpretations of contractual documents. Nov 22 07 09:31 pm Link That would be nice. Hopefully this will encourage more people to generate instructional material here.
