Does anyone think a new forum for "side dishes" would be helpful? I often know what I want to make as a main dish, but side dishes are hard to come up with. I often find myself hopping around to several forums on here to come up with a side dish (potatoes, rice, pasta, salads, etc.)...so for me it would be much easier to go to one forum. Thoughts?

:angry: I just had to use this smiley, it cracks me up:mrgreen:

Thats a good idea Amber.:) We are also looking to split up some of the other forums and add sub-forums. Any idea's?

I cant think of anything for subforums at the moment, but I would like to ask two things. These are questions for admins as well as all members. Would anyone like to see a chatroom on here, if that is even possible? Or do you think that would detract from people posting in the forums?

And second, is there a calendar link on here? I cant find it if there is one. On another forum that I belong too (not cooking related) they have an area at the bottom of the main page that says who is celebrating their birthday today. It's a nice feature this way we can all post to whomever is having a birthday.

I have always wished that casseroles was a sub-form. :)
Great idea! Maybe I can start a thread and we can discuss our opinions on sub-category's.:cool:

I would like to see "Jokes" as a sub forum. This would save the hassle of opening up
a particular topic only to find out it is a joke. Likewise if one `wants a bit of cheering up
one could go straight to the "Jokes" section without scanning through all the other
threads looking for one that is a cheer-me-up
.:LOL:

I hope the above makes sense!

I inquired yesterday on here about a birthday calendar and have just noticed "todays birthdays" at the bottom of the page. Is that new or did I just never notice it? I could sware I never saw that before. Anyway, thats a good feature to have, I can say happy birthday to everyone!

That was one of the features of the new software.
