    Suggestion 1:
    Someone brought up a good point, and it's one I'd been thinking about for a bit now:
    For the [​IMG] and maybe others if desired, what about adding the ability to have thread title "flair" similar to what certain sections of reddit have for you to use when you submit a post? And then on top of that, we could have thread titling guidelines to help people keep things uniform and easier to browse.

    Example of this on reddit:
    [​IMG]
    And here's how I think it could work for the Creative SXN:

    Say for example I want to post my next EP, The Autumn Storm once it releases. I go to make a thread, and in the process I can choose from multiple "flair" options like "EP" "LP" "Art" "Song" "Artist" (for artist threads) "Lyrics" etc.. I choose "EP". I then title my thread following these example guidelines for music posting:

    Title - Artist [Genre]

    The result suddenly transforms the CreativeSXN into something like this:

    [​IMG] The Autumn Storm - Cyreides [Ambient/Electronic/Hip Hop]
    [​IMG] Dirty Money - SIMHA [Hip Hop]
    [​IMG] Darkest Place - Somerandomexampleguy [Oil Painting]

    [​IMG] Embrace The Strange - Celtique [Noir/Hip Hop]
    [​IMG] N9NETY 5IVE 8IGHTY 3HREE - LasiK [Hip Hop]
    It's not perfect, and everyone won't always follow it, but it looks much better than this:

    Suggestion 2:

    Suggestion 3:
    A @PVRO idea, some kind of music player setup somewhere to function like a radio for the good s--- coming out of the SXN
    Suggestion 4:
    Suggestion 5:
    Suggestion 6:
    Featured 'section' at the top of the @CreativeSXN that catalogues all the (good) releases from the SXN, like those featured in the SXN80 Label thread.
    Like this:

    All of the covers link to the album/EP itself.

    how about these instead:
    Mixtape
    Album
    Production
    Song
    Artwork
    Help

    ...i'm not sure what 'beat tape' is, but i'm assuming it fits in nicely with 'production'? 'discussion', 'official', and 'important' seem filler and you just wouldn't use a prefix as those are more general creative discussion topics...don't want to overload the options.
