Default Can we group these in folders or something?

Like all the food signs together, to make it easier to see if someone has asked that question before?

I agree! We're quickly approaching the point that even grouping by first letter of the alphabet might help keep it manageable.

Default

I've seen boards that had sub-forums. The forum could remain "How do you sign...?". Then below that you could have food signs, greeting signs, vehicles signs, holiday signs, etc., plus a miscellaneous category for things that didn't fit in the other sub-forums.

I thought I would try and catagorize the signs for you all, but I can't think of a good way to do it. If I catagorized it by theme than I would have all the replies pertaining to that one sign as well as all the other signs in the catagory, which in my opinion would be even more confusing to sift through. So if you want an easier way to find your sign, if I may suggest, you click Thread in the green bar and the threads will be arranged in alphabetical order (it should have an arrow pointing up next to Thread when posts are alphabetized). That way you can see if your sign has been asked.

Could you add a "Sticky" thread with guidelines for new thread titles for us? I've noticed that sometimes we don't think to put the word as the first part of the title -- that would help... Examples: "Making a sign for..." or "Different kinds of...". It would help a bit. TIA.
