From experiences on other forums, I think you are better off waiting for a really busy forum, then fragmenting it more. A fragmented forum changes the feel of a forum when posts start to dwindle. A forum that has some reasonable traffic, but with lots of fragmentation feels as though it isn't busy at all; so you need a really busy forum to fragment it a lot. <br /> <br />Some participants like slower forums, but more seem to enjoy high traffic. I prefer busier forums. Having a separate forum for layout design is smart as you want the thread to hang around for a while so that you can have a chance to think about what you might recommend or suggest to the person and various people from different scales can give positive input. <br /> <br />This forum is still a bit to slow for my tastes - by slow I mean participation - but since I whined and moaned about a new forum and one has been provided; I will support the new forum for a year or so in the hopes that traffic will pick up; which I'm sure it will.
