    I wouldn't be comfortable assigning "responsibilities" since you're volunteering your time without asking anything in return. But you have a power to keep the forum clean by deleting spam threads and/or posts, or editing posts with offensive language, etc. It's very rare though.

    The "Admin" link leads to your back-end area listing your options.

    Leo, it wont occur to me to ask "anything in return" because I feel honored to be a member of this site and meet wonderful artists here. So, please, if I can do anything useful, let me know, I'll be happy.
    BTW, what happen to Boulgakow?

    Leo, thanks, I'm honoured. However, I'm not really a moderate person (wink). Are you sure you didn't rush into promoting me?
    Nikira, I'm wondering about him too. And I do miss his posts. He seems to dissapear after I posted one landscape which was strongly influenced by his work. I hope it was not the reason for him to be absent for so long. Let's just hope he's OK and would be back soon! Anyone checked his blog to see if it's been updated?
    Meanwhile, I've sent him a mail asking about his wellbeing. His blog was also not updated after September 18th!

    Do you know where to get a hat with 3 corners? You know, like Napoleon's one? And sticker with letter M?

    while there are, in fact, quite many places to get these 3-cornered Napoleon's hats (because it's Halloween time) -
    only this one seems suitable for such an esteemed Moderator as you:

    unfortunately, this hat pales in comparison to the hat that Bob wears, whilst he's in a Moderator's seat. ;-)

    as for the monogram,

    or, if you want to make your own monogram:

    ----------
    Hello everyone! :-),
    I have several ideas that might take shape in this community.
    I thought it would be great to write in the forum for example:
    - Name of Museum and its website if they do, worldwide.
    - Arts and venue of the same worldwide.
    - Cultural links of interesting sites on the Internet.
    - Recommendation Movies, plays, books about art.
    - Share lessons about art. (Example: How do make clean your brushes?; Good brand names of paper, brushes, paints?; How is painted in wax, watercolor, tempera, chalk, charcoal, etc?.
    - What music do you listen for inspiration?. If you can put the letter better.
    - Reports and interviews with artists who explain their work humbly to all of us can enrich.
    - Is it possible to have too skineart logo in the avatar of the forum when we in this?.
    Well, here's what I can think of at the moment ... But you can gradually expand ... I will say that you think.

    ¡Hola a todos! :-):

    Tengo varias ideas que podrían tomar forma en esta comunidad.
    He pensado que estaría genial escribir en el foro por ejemplo:
    - Nombre de Museos y su página web si la tienen, de todo el mundo.
    - Exposiciones y lugar de celebración de las mismas en todo el mundo.
    - Enlaces culturales de sitios interesantes en internet.
    - Recomendación de Películas, obras de teatro, libros sobre arte.
    - Compartir enseñanzas sobre arte. (Ej: ¿Cómo limpiais vuestros pinceles?; ¿Nombres de marcas buenas de papel, pinceles, pinturas?; ¿Cómo se pinta en cera, acuarela, témpera, sanguina, carboncillo, etc?.
    - ¿Qué música escuchas para inspirarte?. Si se puede poner la letra mejor.
    - Reportajes y entrevistas con artistas que expliquen humildemente su trabajo para que todos nos podamos enriquecer.
    - ¿Es posible que salga también el logotipo de skineart en el avatar del foro para cuando hablemos en éste?.
    Bueno, ésto es lo que se me ocurre por el momento... Pero se puede ampliar gradualmente... Ya direis que os parece.

    After reading all of this I'm thinking it's getting more complicated than it needs to be. Since we are all limited to Moleskine art, participation is already limited. As for getting "junk" art on here, so far I haven't seen any. There are people who are less experienced or younger who have some way to go, but if they use a Moly in the learning process I see no reason to "judge" their art except maybe for something that is obviously pornographic.

    Being able to post and get feed-back is good for an inexperienced artist. After all, we can all scan right by whatever work we don't like, nor is anyone required to make a comment about any work that doesn't appeal. If an artist never gets any positive commentary they will more than likely eliminate themselves from posting.

    Personally I like seeing all the variety, including the results of those who are struggling. Don't know about you, but even though I've painted for years I'm still struggling and appreciate any constructive feedback I get.

    Just my 2 cents worth. Keep it simple!

    Yes simple is good.
    Two things tho.
    1. Logo is a good idea
    2.When is that update to the site happening?( the blue/ tabbed one)
    thanks.

    Just an info about Boulgakov - he's alive and kicking!
    Here is an abstract from his reply:
    "but unfortunately, from october to april, I'm 300% in my work on snowboarding, skiing, snowkiting. I don't forget you, and I'll be back in spring...I'm still visiting the 'skineArt page and fave all the drawings I love."
    For all of us who worried (older members could have known that since apparently he was absent the last winter as well).

    Leo, I think it would be more practical if forum newest posts were on top, in other words to reverse their order - if all agree and if that's not something difficult to do!?

    I guessed so, that over there snow starts earlier than here. About Boulgakow. And I agree it would be more comfortable to see right away the newest reply. If it is not too complicated to do.

    I feel I should publicly apologize for expecting everyone to suck back at the beginning. I just expected goofy kids and god knows who else to just post things all the time, you know like how on YouTube half of the videos are like, "I'm sorry I don't play very well" or "Yo! I think I need to speak about what happened to Michael." And then it's some rambling missive. I got some flack as I recall, like I thought we would end up championing mediocrity, but you have to understand that people post all sorts of idiot things. I think everyone here has done great and I hope I've never come off as a bonehead. There is mediocrity in the world but I didn't mean "us".

    Pink, not to worry. Your concerns were legitimate, and I suppose that is something we need to watch out for. It's just that so far I haven't seen anything of the sort here. So until it happens I think we can just relax and let it flow. Right?
