i been looking for an ACTIVE photography and video editing forums, but it seems like using Google its like steeping into a minefield.
this exists http://www.thebiggestboards.com - but it hasn't been updated in decades.
While we are at it, which forums do you regular? and whats their category?
Here's two sites where you can start your own forum: https://8ch.net/ https://proboards.com/ aka https://boards.net/ aka https://freeforums.net/ I already posted about https://8ch.net/logic/ :
I personally don't use it much and can't comment on the quality or community, but photo.net is a rather popular photography site with forums: http://photo.net/bboard/unified
I'm not sure if what you are asking for exists. That would be cool because there seems to be a forum for every niche out there, but it's hard to tell which ones are the best or most active. If you find anything please let me know. edit: After I posted my comment I found this wiki page http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Internet_forums. Though it doesn't have a photography forum, the list is interesting.
