korlforever 0 Posted January 29, 2012 Thank you very much for this great forum. Here is one suggestion from me, if you don't mind: There are about 8 main sections with again 1-4 sub sections each. Although it seems to make sense having forums divided like this, I would suggest to cut this amount down to 2-3 with just a few subsections. The reason for this mainly because many of them do overlap anyway (LPR, customers have both analog & IP cameras, etc.) First of all it tidies everything up a bit and is not that cluttered but the MAIN reason is that you get more people to read and answer than just a few, who happen to be at the right time at the right place. For example, you might find someone with a lot expertise in PC based systems reading "DVR cards & software" while not looking at "security cameras" at that time and missing therefor a question from someone else. I believe this will make the forum more active. And you get more answers. My suggestion would be: WELCOME -Introductions -CCTV FAQs -Announcements (trade shows, website, etc) -Classifieds -Suggestions about the website CCTV -software (surveillance, ALPR, face recognition, etc.) -hardware (lenses, cameras, access control, etc.) or something else in that direction. Just a thought. Hope you don't mind. Cheers. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
