I have an account with a crafting forum and they have showoff sunday (or something like that). Someone starts a thread every sunday and everyone posts photos of projects they have completed that week (and people can keep adding stuff to that thread throughout the week if they miss it on sunday). Then people can critique each other...It's a great way to get feedback and to see what other people are coming up with.

Would you guys be open to doing that? Or....I would be willing to start a critique group in world and we could meet in world and show stuff off. I see lots of art and design groups and I'm not sure if any of them do critiques.

Cool idea. I'd suggest doing it on the Gallery forum rather than here though. The Gallery more purposed for "showing off" than this forum is.

Of course, the argument could certainly be made that all the critiquing will be educational, so that part of it might make it fit here, sort of. That's a bit of a gray area. Eve so, I still think it would fly better in the Gallery, since the posts won't be formatted as the kind of "how do I..." questions that work so well here.

I'll suggest that if you do this, the posts should include an SLURL link, so people can more readily see the actual work in-world. For a lot of builds, a pic on a forum won't do it justice.
