I am not sure if it ok to post this or where! If it's not ok please delete!

Well soon I am going to do a new forum for Photography,

So that people can share there pictures and get help with things or ask people to make them look more good etc.

What do you think of a forum like that?

and here is some things I need help with:

A name
A host, would have to be PHPBB3 and would like it if can do own back-ups + maybe let me use my own url from like co.cc

The only problem is there's hundreds of well established sites which do this already. What would make yours different?

Well tbh, I am going to take a look at some tonight and have a look what they don't have so I can use so mine is different from them all.

I would create a more unique forum. As mentioned above, photography forums are abundant on the net.

What kind of forum would you say a good one would be good to do

Are you really into photography?

Is there a particular type that you enjoy shooting? Candid, Street, Landscape, Macro?

If so, why not create a forum around that?

I would suggest you check the photography section and the sticky in there, lots of links to sites and forums.

also don't go with phpbb for a photography forum, with its lame BBcode features and lack of a working WYSIWYG editor.

either vbulletin or IPB.
