MikeMaben Posted November 6, 2021 Share Posted November 6, 2021 Hi Kev, I often see people on the web looking for people who make masks. Since there are people here who are quite good at that, perhaps you could add a forum for people who make masks so we could send folks here for help. Just a thot, Mike 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mozart Posted November 6, 2021 Share Posted November 6, 2021 Do you mean send them here for advice Mike or to commission individual masks to be made? Max Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kevin Futter Posted November 7, 2021 Share Posted November 7, 2021 Some sort of Vendors Board, similar to what we have on LSP, has been part of my thinking for SMPM from the beginning, but I wanted to let it grow a little first, as it's hard to attract vendors to a site that has little traffic. Sadly, we still have little traffic. So now we have a chicken-and-egg situation. Much of this is largely due to my inability to spend more time being active on the site, and leading from the front. Life is quite emphatically in the way at the moment, but once the smoke clears early next year, I intend to take a hard look at SMPM, figure out what's working and what's not, and do what I can to not only ensure its continued existence, but also hopefully foster some growth in traffic and interest. And that will probably include adding a section where mask makers can promote their services, and members can make requests. I'm also happy to consider any other suggestions anyone might have!

MikeMaben Posted November 8, 2021 Author Share Posted November 8, 2021 I see Kevin. I do see folks who want custom decals masks but don't have the resources and there are no lists that I know of of people who would be happy to make masks for others but it's not really practical to advertise as an individual. For an example, Rob de Vie has a site re making your own decals and has a list of folks that will make them for you. Even if there were only a few folks who would be willing, at least it would be someplace we could send them. I fully understand your issue with real life eating up your time, it was just a suggestion, maybe in the future. Take care. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WoodyV Posted November 12, 2021 Share Posted November 12, 2021 Interesting idea and could help drive traffic this way. Painted markings are all the rage these days but deciding to cut your own starts out with the expense of the cutter and then there's the learning curve which is the real bugaboo.
