Hello,
in the past days I've been looking arount the Artist Trading section. Everything there is confusing and unclear to me. There are so many people who offer their services - but there are also some people who are searching for a service. Not everybody is using [WTS] and [WTB] tags, so who should look trough this mess? My suggestion is to split the Artist Trading section into two parts:
Section A [Offers]: Here every artist can post a thread to offer his service.
Section B [Seek]: People who are searching for a design can post their threads here. So artists who are looking for jobs can go there and find these jobs.
The current situation is:
- People who are searching for a design service will find one pretty fast, because there are so many threads around.
- But for artists it's pretty hard to find a job there. That's because of so many offering threads. People who push their threads every few hours/days won't make it easier.
Another option is to bind people to the [WTS] and [WTB] tags. They can't create a new thread without any of these tags. So everbody can clearly see / filter what kind of thread he's searching for.
Please let me know what you're thinking about my suggestion.
Maybe you have another idea to bring more clarity to Artist Trading? Let me know.
