Strobist's of NS

I've started a website for strobists to discuss strobist stuff. I realize there is the flickr group and most people post on the blog but I find it's much easier to search and read in a dedicated forum. This is in no way associated with strobist.com.

There is nothing on it right now which is why I need your guys help. I'm going to start a contest for the first 100 users who refer 10 people will get something. I need suggestions on what to give out. I was thinking stickers, shirts, gels, something like that. The number of people and how many they refer is not definite either. I need your guys suggestions.

It would be great if you guys registered and posted questions or reviews of products you've used or anything else you can think of.

Oh and the site does not look pretty. I will be changing it after I spend some time navigating it and getting a feel for it. If you guys have any suggestions please post them in the site suggestion forum on the site. Thanks!

If this got going I'd definitely lurk around. I don't know much about flashes except for checking out the strobist group on flickr

That's exactly what it's for. I had such a hard time finding anything on strobist.com or the flick group I decided it would be helpful for others to make a site like this. If you know anyone that is into photography and knows something about strobes tell them to post something helpful. Even if it's just a question.

Can't believe no one here uses flashes in their photography.

I'm going to join up, and I hardly use my flash! (I want that to change though, haha.) The forum is a great idea.

Great place to learn. Tell your friends. I'm still trying to figure out a prize for referrals.

You came off a bit full of yourself with the "This is how it's supposed to be done." statement.

You have some pretty harsh shadows going for you in both of those photos, but still pretty solid portraiture.

I'm not talking about the pictures. It's an example of how to post a gallery.
