Inspirational Web Sites

Just run this idea up the flag pole see if gets saluted or torn down and burnt.

In the Best of the Best could we have a section that is dedicated to inspirational web sites.

I know that in this thread "American Bashing" - Lignim referred to a couple of sites that have some fantastic items in gallery pics. Also foraging through the scrollers forum a very old thread refers to a US site with a gallery of exceptional works on it.

The site could be catagorised for different things perhaps scrollers - furniture etc.

What do you think??

We do have a website section

I see what you mean but what i am getting at with an "inspirational website" is where we can go and look at galleries of pictures of work by others - you would have found a section very useful earlier on "clocks" if a section were there with links - if you get what I mean.

Cheers

sounds good.
who does the work?

Should work on the same principal as the best book.

If there are specified sections to start with then contirbutors add their own additions - the physical mechanics I am not sure of but it is something that would grow with time and be a useful resource for someone starting a project and in it's infancy after ideas. Contributors could just flag the sites for what they offer in the title of their post contribution eg

Furniture site - style - site address

Clocks - site address

Intarsia site - site address

Scrollers site - American works - site address


etc

This allows quick scanning if resources can't manage the site.

Just an idea - I have seen some wonderful sites and it seems a shame they are not made known to others here.

Cheers

some one better start. i like this:)

Well Tikki has suggested I should offer to manage the thread on inspirational websites, Redwood likes the idea and has offered a site. Echnidna is in favour of the idea.

If managing the thread involves just visiting the associated sites and keeping up with the list and catagorising it all and I don't know if the moderators clean out all the superfluous information then I am prepared to give it a go - would need some guidance to get started but if it is allowed and acceptable why not??

Any more feedback for or against??

And of course any feedback from the moderators on the proposal??

Cheers

I suggest the subject matters of the various websites be listed alphabetically

If i had a web site it would be just like this. Images from the studio floor is facinating stuff.

Check your PM Teejay.

So do I list out all my Designer Sites I've found or not?? i.e. I think it's a good idea, but need to hear back what the agreed result is.

Yes Ruffly,

I have been given blessing by the site moderators to set up the "Inspirational Web Sites" in Best of Best and to, as Cliff showed by example, moderate it by checking each site before including it in the list.

As Echnidna said it will be in alphabetical topic order that is Clocks will be above Furniture and below these will be Scrolling etc.

The idea is fir cintributors to only give me sites that have pictures or galleries in them so we can see the works of others.

Thanks for any contributions - I will set up the thread shortly but any sites posted here will also be gathered in the short-term.

I propose we define the thread with:-

ITEM - DESCRIPTION - STYLE - SITE

So by example:-

Clocks - Mantle - ##@##.com
Clocks - Grandfather, Wall - #@##.com

Furniture - Chairs, Tables, Chests - Old/Classic - #####@##.com
Furniture - Chairs, Tables - Rustic - ###@##.com.au

Scrollsaw - Pictures, Slabs etc - American - ###@##.com
Scrollsaw - Pictures, Slabs etc - UK - ###@##.com.uk


Any other better ideas welcome ideas??

Cheers
