New forum - Member's Photo News.

<p>To address the need for the photo.net community to be able to announce photo related news or updates (professional or otherwise), I have created a new forum:<br>

http://www.photo.net/members-photo-news-forum/<br>

<strong>PLEASE</strong> read the forum guidelines. If you do not understand or have questions, please ask:</p>

<blockquote>

<p>This is a forum for photo.net members to announce gallery shows, publications, new websites, and so on. This forum is somewhat heavily moderated to prevent abuse.<br>

It exists to help our established members get a little attention for themselves. It does not exist as a place for industry press releases, SEO boost efforts, "for sale" ads, or anything of that sort.<br>

If your first post on the site is in this forum, it will be deleted and your account likely will be closed. To our regular members, please use some self restraint as far as posting here. If you find yourself wanting to post to this forum more than once or twice a month, then you are probably not using it as it was intended.</p>

</blockquote>

<p>At the moment the forum is available to everyone. However, it may become a subscriber-only benefit in the future. I would like to see how it's used first and how popular/successful it becomes.<br>
