Attack Of The Sticky's In The Pepakura And Cardboard Armor Forum

[Roadwarrior]

I would like a new place for most of the sticky's to move out of said sub-forum they're taking up half of the main page. What ever happened to the tutorial sub-forum that we where supposed to get?



Soon they will take up the whole front page,(Ohh Noooh!) And we can't let the sticky scum advance on our topic's border's anymore I say we fight back by....EHmm srry bout that, heh, but on a more serious note, it is getting to be a slight annoyance And I would like it resolved.

I think they should revise over the stickys and choose to delete some of them that have been replaced by new improved, easier and non stickyfied topic.There are alot of uneeded stickys there.

I agree, I've compiled a list of the Stickies in the forum and think that the whole area can be condensed into three of four threads. And maybe even have a section for General Armor construction (a place where the fiberglass, bondo, SmoothOn, visor, strapping and painting stuff can go.)



These could be condensed into a General Overview of Pepakura:



Sticky: The Ultimate Pepakura FAQ

Read this before starting a help thread!



Sticky: Tutorial: Pepakura building for dummies (or noobs)

Trying to continue the frizzlefry tutorial



Sticky: Tutorial: How to use Pepakura to make your Mjolnir Armor



Sticky: A Grunt's Guide To Pepakura

Visual Quickstart to Pepakura Viewer/Designer here! Pic heavy!





These could be condensed into a single thread:



Sticky: Halo 3 Pepakura Download Hub!



Sticky: 405Th.com Pepakura Hub - Live!



Sticky: The Pep Index (wiki)





I would leave these as they are because I see these questions pop up a lot on the forums and even though they are posted in most tutorials pulling them out might give them more exposure.



Sticky: Official pepakura scaling thread



Sticky: Tutorial: How To Make Good Folds For Pepakura Armor

**UPDATED AS OF 1/13/09**

These need their own sub-forum in the Creation Forum:

That's my thoughts,

[rvb18]

i posted this issue a long time ago, they'll fix it when they think it needs to be fixed

[gingersnapples]

yeah, most likley someone will fix it when the stickies start flooding into the second page.

Thanks for the suggestions guys, and I agree. I'll look into this, maybe this is something that can be solved simply without too much debate and mucking about. I have some time I can put into this tomorrow evening. I'll try to keep it free.

Already done.. the thread is in the Armor videos section



Ugh, today is flying by and I've barely started anything... I'll at least get something done late tonight if all goes well.

Sean. Recently, ive got the idea that i could make a visor by fiberglassing a pep visor for my security helmet. Then, i could heat some plexiglass (Ive been told of your great works of vacumforming) And push it over the visor. Do you think this is a good idea?
