I have a suggestion, and since it pertains directly to this sub-forum and it's content, I'm going to post it here and then go looking for the actual suggestions thread.
'Art' is a very broad term, so keep the content of this sub-forum confined only to original peices that are drawn, painted, sculpted, done in the artist's medium of choice.
This means no dancing, singing, writing/poetry, etc. should really be allowed in here. I know these are all forms of 'art', but they're all very different from one another, and grouping them all together will make things cluttered and overly complicated. You'll also get the 'that's not really an art form' and 'this is what real art is' type topics, and that's just more drama then what's really nescisary.
My suggestion to you?
Start off by staiting in a rules sticky what is and isn't allowed. Then go and make a writers sub-forum, as that's probably going to be the next most needed. After that shoot for a preforming arts sub-forum.
