Should We Put Job Boards In The First Category?

[admin]

im thinking just have it under "global 2d/3d forums" as "Job boards" and put all of them under that..

what do you guys think?

[user_deleted]

Yes, that seems to make better sense...

and also I'd like to know the reasoning behind the order of the subdirectories?
Not that it matters a whole lot, but I thought the maya organization to be a little weird.
Maya Animation, then Dynamics, then modeling...fluids nowhere near dynamics..general in the middle? New user at the bottom so now all the new user posts seem to be going to general instead becouse they don't look that far down.
I don't know, seems off for some reason.

I liked the order things were in on the old site for the most part.

[admin]

Well the old order made a lot of sense...heres my take on it...
I can't recall if you still have all of these or if they are broken down into other parts... but..anyway:

---

Maya New User ( becouse then if its the first thing they see they'll post there again instead of maya general)
Maya General
Maya Modeling
Maya Rigging
Maya Animation
Maya Dynamics
Maya Fluids
Maya Hair/fur
Maya Rendering/texturing
Maya Mental Ray

---

That makes sense to me, what are your guys take on it.

mel api and wishlist is missing....

And no many dont post on new user not becaus eits last but becasu ethey dont hink they are new users

id say the order should be

new user
modelling
rigging
animation
dynamics
fluid
mel
api
rendering
mr
pfx
hair/fur
general
Wishlist

Thisway if kgbs view on reading poorder genaral would get stuff whan EVERYthing else si cosidered. And thets wthe way is hould be.

order is in other words

start gghere section
then things in order of normal workflow
and teh api and rendering stuff.

Ive made a concious jumbe out of fur and pfx sicnce tehy are partly rendering and partly dynamic stuff. BUt the thing is dynamics and mel should be close to eachoter so people more easily se that thge two topics are separated since mel gets a lott of things that shoudl be in dynamics.

MAybe dynamics should be named dyamics and expressions? tehangain maybe ist a realy bad idea

[user_deleted]

Oh yeah forgot about MEL ...
yeah I like general being at the bottom, and yeah I think people have been generally putting expression questions in dynamics already.
