Default Is this perhaps a topic for "Sticky" status?

I've just posted a thread "What are you printing, right now!" and I'm wondering whether this would make a good forum "Sticky"?
(For those not in the know, "Sticky topics" are designed to always stay on top of the topic overview)

I was having such a great time printing this evening that I just wanted to share the immediate experience and alchemy of the darkroom.

On reflection, it may have great potential either by helping to motivate people to set-up darkrooms if they don't already have one or to get back into their darkrooms if it's a struggle and we've all been there...


I'm curious what the others find of this idea?

Excellent idea Marty! Having just read your two posts on this idea has made up my mind for me - I shall do some printing today (Sunday 5/2/12)

Super looking print btw

You have lost me, all this computer talk is like a foreign language the same as all these financial "haircuts" and "babies in bathwater" which all politicians seem to have. Three cheers for the "Plain English Society."

The clue to "sticky" was kindly explained in the OP (Opening Post).

AAAh, no batteries, no power requirments, no circuit boards, no dry joints, no bugs, no viruses, no problems. Just get a set of log tables as well and life is shear bliss.
