Requesting for a new sub-section

Hi all crazy CEans!!
I have a great idea to increase the number of active member. When I first got the idea & I contacted godfather for help. He said me that post a thread in suggestion section. So here I am posting this suggestion. The idea is about starting a new sub-section in CE-Project section. This section should named
Do It Yourself
or anything better. This sub-section contains the thread related to DIY projects. We can add DIY project overselves, or even a member can start a new thread asking for help to fellow CEans. This will help lots of engineers who are looking forward to make project himself, but dont find a good & clear guidance. I firmly believe that by this manner the number of active members will be increased, cause majority of engineers visit CE only for project. I too joined CE this way but than I attracted by the active and crazy members of CE & I felt that I can also be among of those crazies, and now I am active in CE. Thats what I am thinking about. We can get some more active CE members by starting such a sub-section.
Post your suggestions about this and also tell that whether such section should be started or not.

    Good idea, but a different sub-section is not needed, a thread would do with the first page being an index.. πŸ˜€
    Like one of those warez music/movies thread lol

    see this just for the example of organizing stuff with an index page within a thread. πŸ˜€

    I dont think so that maintaining thread as index will be good. If we want to share DIY project than there is no problem but if we want discussion about any project than anyone has to start a new thread, which will be mixed up with other projects thread which will be not so useful. Anyway thanks for your support.

    OK yeah you have a point there. :smile:
    Maybe having a sub-forum won't be bad idea then. 😁

    Sorry for the delay for my comments πŸ˜€

    Yeah.. I believe DIY projects can be placed under the Project Ideas section, though I dont think a subsection is necessary. Similar to Kashish's idea, we just sticky one thread that will contain a list, like how I did with the Project List at CE Labs. We'll tag the titles of the DIY projects threads with a [DIY] tag and link it back to the main DIY index thread.

    eg:
    #-Link-Snipped-#

    Who will maintain the list? I suggest Rajdeep can start that thread so he is able to edit the list. Mods can assist.

    Ok ash.
    That is also good idea. Later if the popularity increases than we can think of subsection.
    I will start a new thread within few weeks, after consulting with godfather cause he has a very good project list as I have seen in his sticky project list thread.
    😁

    Finally i am going to start one Topic Named :DIY:

    let me know if anyone want to give any suggestion or any comments..

    Something extra that i want to add is i will protect the file with password and for password you have to PM me cause i want to give this data to only for the CE members. Guest can visit this topic but if they want to download then they must have to register themselves here on CE.

    and Guys you can also share your project here in this DIY thread.

    i think by this thread we might have good some active member here.

    So here finally i want to ask Ceans that what i am going to start is it ok?
