Maybe it is cause there is already a Whole Room Named Gallery?

I know there is Shawn. I just thought that since this was the BORO room, that's where the boro gallery belongs. Now, I have to hop back and forth.
Sometimes I sign in ONLY to pop into the boro forum real quick.
Why does everything have to be so cut and dry? Why couldn't we have kept the boro gallery here? I'm not being snarky, just asking.

I agree! It kinda sucks having to look through lots links with soft glass when I really just want to see boro gallery pics, and now all the galleries have been moved and intermingled with the soft glass...

This area is for Boro tips and techniques. Other people want to see boro in the gallery area as well. It helps to inspire people.

I liked it with our gallery in here too folks... I'm asking and trying to find out what's up. I'll bribe Miss Corri with beads if I have to... it's her site and we'll have to play by her rules, but there's nothing in the rule book about bribes not being OK.

Default we can beat them at their own game, if you're game!

Say is ain't so!
ok if this room is supposed to be about technique why don't we call our gallery, weekly Boro instruction thread and when we post our porn we give a tip or technique or ask a question about a tip or technique to go with our pretty pictures. that way we can have our porn and learn from it too thereby keeping within the rules of the room. cause honestly trying to find the boro thread in the gallery is going to be a giant PAIN.
Mr. smiley fix this please!!!!

Here's an idea...

I wonder if it would work to make an official "Gallery" forum, and have a separate "Show & Tell" forum. In the Gallery, there would only be weekly gallery threads. In Show & Tell, it would be a place for people to start individual threads showing off their work. That way in the Gallery, there would be less threads and it would be easier to find what you're looking for.

Many of us post pics of stuff that isn't necessary sellable, but just progress. I don't want to post that in the main gallery. That really belongs in this room. And all the gorgeous glass that is sellable is usually posted in the other gallery also. DARN! Corri...... pleeeezzzzzzzzzzzzz let us have our own gallery back.

Uh Oh... sorry Corri, I didn't mean to start a small war. lol
Was only curious.
I kind of understand the reason behind it.
The official gallery room is for everyone to see the pretty eyecandy.
I was just being selfish and lazy that I don't want to have to dig around for stuff. Hey, at least I'm honest.
Ps... are you taking bribes? I'll be getting my drink on with Smiley this weekend and I'm SURE I can conjur up some blackmail photos if so inclined.
would that work?
lol

In a situation like that, I would think that you could post it in this forum, but title it something other than "Gallery". Maybe something like "my progress so far" or something. Then it's not an actual gallery, but more of a discussion of technique.

I would like to see a seperate boro gallery as well. I think about 10% or less of the people on LE are doing boro, and that means that there would be a ton of softglass stuff to wade through. I just don't have the time to do that each day. Considering we have a ton of rooms for stuff that isn't glass related, can't we make an exception for us. Heck, if we got rid of the back alley that would make room for a boro gallery, right?

Also, I think that in our boro galleries we exchange a lot more useful information on how we made the stuff than I see in most of the postings in the softlgass galleries. Plus, I think it confuses people when they inquire about how you made a piece and then lose interest when they find out it is boro - I almost pick up a "why are you posting that here" kind of feeling somtimes from them.

Hope I didn't upset anyone, but I wanted to add my 2 cents as well.

Eric

I wish now I would not have posted my first off mandrel stuff. I did it here because it was just Boro users.

Man... I was about to post some new stuff... Now we have to wade through all of the other gallery threads to find it?
I thought we all voted that there should be a link on the main LE homepage to the boro gallery, or at least the boro room that would ideally contain the boro gallery?
I liked it better before too. I can understand the logic but old thread placements die hard...

From what I see, no one has posted in it since it was moved. It's also half way down the page already. I don't think anyone looks down very far in the main gallery because it's so busy. I have a feeling our boro gallery won't last very long on the first page because we don't fill it up very quickly. It's normally at the top in the boro room because it's a much quieter room. A lot of us post in the show and tell threads too (I do!), but it's nice to have a place to see just boro work all together I can't imagine the main gallery people are too upset about having the boro gallery in here...seeing as how no one has posted on it and if they wanted to see it all they would have to do is pop in this room and it's right there at the top of the page. If it stays in the main gallery, we're either going to have to keep bumping it up or we'll never find it Please give us our gallery back!!

It is Going to be discussed to see what can be done to work it out.

Give it a little time. It was only moved last night, many of you have some good and valid points.

As I said I didn't move it, Honestly I had never been in this area.
As I have never worked with boro. I have some but that is about the limit of my knowledge.

We'll ask Miss Corri nicely and see what she says. I think she may be able to chat soon. Hold on folks... I hear you and feel you. I love this room... it keeps me sane!
