All "Rate My Image" Forums would need a read first stickied post explaning how to upload to imageshack.
All "Rate My Movie" Forums would need a read first stickied post explaning how to upload to google video and other free large file uploading websites.
I think it would be nice to link in places to pages of Wikipedia
Iv'e put most things on at least the second level because the first two don't have forums, they are just sections (like "Welcome to Fractal Forums" is) and categories (like "Fractal Community" is)
If thease changes where to take place among other things the thread
http://www.fractalforums.com/index.php?topic=75.0 would be of no use anymore and not need to be transfered over.
