Had to close down the art forum .. East European idiots kept trying to hack in - not to worry a phoenix shall rise from the ashes just more secure this time.

Good new though prioryart.com now No 1 on google search..

Forget all the Forum stuff.. had to take down.. I created two forums  both were hacked / spammed by east european - so boring.. and whats the point..

I've just created a new art forum - http://www.prioryart.com/prioryart.htm for chat and advice - doesn't matter what and how you produce artwork the categories are flexible, if you want to add one for your art club, or event and monitor it shout/email I'll sort you out.
You don't need to become a member to "post", but if you do the captcha stuff goes away... you'll be elevated.. ha

If your in the Christchurch DORSET area over the next 4 weeks pop into the Hayloft Gallery
heres a link for details http://alanhayden.com/events-and-exhibitions pop in and say hello.

Don't Submit your domain to "free" submit it sites to 3000 search engines.. It's a con.
They submit your name to a whole load of statistic/analysis web sites that link to google etc. full of adsense and advert based display pages .. that DO NOT provide a link to YOUR domain/website.
The end result is - yeh your www.yourdomainname.com will rank high on google but if you click the google search link you get directed and re-directed to some crap statistics site saying how much your domain name is worth, how many hits etc.. total con.. they probably own / affiliate and earn dosh from  - total rip off. you and your site gain nothing, lots of bad exposure though.
