This is a bit "off the cuff".....
so bear with me please....

I'm wondering if we might have a new area that would permit those of us who are interested to....

post what amounts to a "magazine article" we would like to write.....complete with photos and illustrations if desired.

The subject line would be the title.....
The content would appear just as it would in a magazine.

Any comments on this idea????

Or Maybe just "Garden of the Month" or "Picture of the Month"..have a post and people post a favourite current pic from their garden and everyone votes for their fav and the winner is announced and the pic is Displayed for one month on the site!!

I'm all for an "Articles in the Garden" forum where people would be free to post in-depth articles with photos.

I really like this idea. Although we all learn a lot through discussions on the forums, this would give members a chance to cover their subjects in more depth. Consequently everyone would benefit.
