Ok, let's try a little experiment! The subject of project threads and where they are posted came up recently. The site has a blog section that isn't getting much play, anyone can blog there and it was suggested maybe it would be a good place for projects to be posted. So here's my example of how it might work.

We can create a thread in each forum like this one and stick it at the top. When you blog about your project you build categories and sub-categories and place the blog updates in the right category. This way if you just feel like blogging about a bad day that doesn't have anything to do with your project it won't be in the way when you link it here in the thread.
It's not as complicated as it sounds so if you want to try it give me a PM and I'll walk you through it. I'll also try to get some of the other mods on board and see if we can't get more examples going.
One thing to keep in mind is blogs are logs or storys that you update as you go so when you look at a them the most recent entry is at the top. I quickly put 10 entrys together as a project just for an example. I actually did the project in 3 or 4 days and had I thought it out as I was actually doing the work I might have completed the project with 1 or 2 blog entries.
