CHANGE

[Key]

As of now, this forum has a sub-forum for all thematic topics and those containing photos older than six months. What counts is when a topic is opened and how it is intended. The idea is to split the 'timeless' and collection topics from those about recent photo shoots. If anything is unclear, just ask.

Could you please explain again?

Basically,
If the photos are old edits, say you went to RIAT in 2009 and you've re-edited the pictures, because RIAT was over 6 months ago it goes in the 'thematic thread.'

This splits old and recents shots.

Dag Erik,

maybe an idea, but I think it's far more clear if you split these two topics allready in the Board Index, instead of the Aviation Photo Forum itself. Now I think it's not that clear that there are two topics, Thematic/Actuel).

Is het een idee om de splitsing al te maken op de Board Index zelf, in plaats van in het Aviation Photo Forum zelf.
Nu is het misschien niet helemaal duidelijk. Bovenaan staat een link naar het Thematic gedeelte en daarna komen meteen al de Actuele foto's topics.

Begrijp je wat ik bedoel?

Hoi Martijn,

Die discussie hadden we intern net gevoerd

Onze redenatie was dat een tweede forum op de board index misschien nog meer verwarring zou zaaien. Dat het op deze manier misschien iets duidelijker is.

Een derde manier kan ook nog zijn om twee subforums onder het photo aviation forum te hangen maar dit is afgeketst omdat we vinden dat actueel gewoon gelijk zichtbaar moet zijn.

Maar.......misschien zitten wij er wel helemaal naast

Dus daarom is jullie input altijd gewenst.

--------------------------------------------

We just had the same discussion

A second forum at the board index could let to some confusion. Maybe it is more clear to our forum members at this way.

A third way could be to create two subforums under the Aviation Photo forum. This is not done because the actual postings have to be on the first page.

But maybe we are totally wrong, time will tell

Therefore your input is highly appreciated.

Groeten Thijs

Zo houden, begon die collectie topics beetje zat te worden tussen alle actuele foto's.

Keep it like this.

Dag Thijs en de anderen,

voor de duidelijkheid: ik begrijp de opsplisting en kan me daar ook prima in vinden.
Nu alleen nog de beste manier vinden hoe het te bewerkstelligen.
Prima hoor, om nu even af te wachten hoe deze oplossing werkt.

Let's wait and see, were just my 2 cents!

De scheiding tussen collectie en oude foto's blijft zoals die is. Dat is geen discussie punt.

Het gaat hier meer om de lay-out

En terwijl ik dit zit te typen betrap ik mezelf erop dat het hier English only is.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The distinction between old pictures / collection topics and actual photos is not a point of discussion.

It is more a discussion about the lay-out. Where to place this new created (sub)forum.

For your information, this topic http://www.scramble.nl/forum/viewtopic.php?f=10&t=59759" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; was the trigger

It is more a discussion about the lay-out. Where to place this new created (sub)forum.

In my opinion, the actual lay out is the best. These thematic topics and others still contain pictures, so it clearly belongs in the aviation photo forum and not direct on the board index.

Hulde! Ik begon die verzameltopics echt zat te worden. het werd steeds gekker en algemener.

Een heel goed besluit!

[Macc]

My personal opinion is that it should be seperated like this..
Civilian Aviation:
-Thematic
-Recent
Military Aviation
-Thematic
-Recent

Obviously when you have a topic with both the user will either split it if there is a big number of both, or choose which one section it would be best in.

Oh please, not more civil/military split! I am still hoping the MIL/CIV discrimination in the logs finally end. It is making everything so plit up, it is nearly impossible to have any good overview of what is happening at an airfield! And then the next step to also split up all photo threads per airfield, like with the logs.....?

Erwin,

I don't think you seem to realise that not everyone likes civilian aircraft, I don't not like them but I much prefer military. There is no 'MIL/CIV discrimination' involved, it is merely a means of separation to keep things organised. The reason splitting by airbase doesn't work by this is that it's not always going to be MIL or CIV at a specified base. The reason logs probably are set in airbases is so you know immediately what base is involved.

Kind regards,
Chris.

relax Erwin:-) this split up sounded as a logical one looking at the number of collection topics. When this new mb was introduced the number of collection topics was very low. Nowadays it looks like a new trend. In our opinion it was a logical step to act on this new external development. Although the original plan came from a mb member.
Erwin you also know the world is changing and sometimes you have to react on it and sometimes not. This time we did. But when the input of the new created subforum is very low one can decide to close this subforum. Having a subforum for a low amount of posts does not sound logical. Thijs

It looks like all has been explained.
Short summary: on request of users, we sought a workable division to create a better overview. The easiest and most logical way we could think of, was a simple split. The best criterium seemed to be:

This splits old and recents shots.

And...

the next step to also split up all photo threads per airfield, like with the logs.....?

No, definitely not.
