Snowtographers is a community of skiers and boarders who photograph and film and we need members. I've been working on this site for months and finally have something worthy to share. It has a forum, how to's & DIY, reviews, interviews and soon a photo/video gallery.

www.snowtographers.com

It's in it's early stages as it just launched 2 days ago but we already have a few very active members and need more to continue to grow. It's free to join and very easy, just put your name and email in the box in the form on the right. The more people we have the easier it will be to get more and better content for you guys.

Follow us; http://twitter.com/snowtographers and on Facebook; http://www.facebook.com/pages/Snowtographerscom/398747475393

It's non-profit so all we ask in return is for you to invite your friends



Here is a preview of what we have so far:

Seems fine to me. Try refreshing and post a screenshot on the site if that doesn't work.

I'll probably sign up later, sounds cool if it takes off. Have to get used to the look since it's so different than NS. Hopefully skiers and boarders can get over the hate thing and talk about photo/video stuff peacefully.

NS kids should use the same name as they are here, so we know who is an NSer. I will.

Anyone who disrespects will be perm-banned. No exceptions.

And to you guys with the layout problem, I've made a post on the site regarding it.

Lookin good! I think a mix of tutorials, articles, and interviews (which seems like what you're going for) would be sick.

Stoked on the interview

Isn't AS paid? They've been around a lot longer and we already have 1/3 of their total members. Plus they're not snow specific and it seems like it's really died off recently.

How about step-by-step guides for photoshop noobs? Things like sequence shots, etc.

The ones I've found online suck.
